Finally, this morning, after 5 days of not running, I felt well enough to get out for a short run. Hurray! Ryan's sister, Meghan, is visiting for the weekend, so we met up for a yummy breakfast at Broadway Deli and then came home to put Sam down for a nap. Once she fell asleep, I decided it was high time I got in a run, so I suited up and headed out the door. It was cool and windy, but it was good to get out. I was definitely a little creaky, but no ITB pain. Another hurray!
Sam took over a 2 hour nap (!!), and after we had lunch, we drove to Reid State Park to take a walk. This is the time of year we love to visit the Maine beaches. They are quiet and mostly empty. There are no bugs and it certainly isn't hot. In fact, it was downright cold down along the ocean today! We had Sam all bundled up, but due to the wind, we didn't walk as much as we normally might have. Still, it was a beautiful afternoon to be down by the water, with the sun flitting in and out of the fluffy clouds above, the rose hips and winter berries bright and cheery along the edge of the dunes, and the waves crashing at low tide. Very nice.
