I was lucky enough to go on vacation with my family to San Diego for a week. I was so excited to spend time as a family of four, away from all the stresses of day to day life, and also incredibly excited to run near the ocean. I knew the house we rented was steps away from the Bay side walking path and a few hundred yards away from the ocean side walking path/boardwalk.
My husband and I were lucky enough to get out 3 out of the 5 days we were at the beach and it was awesome! The first day I ran my longest run of the vacation by myself, it was 4th of July and the Bay was getting ready for the nighttime party, great distraction during my run! The next time we ran on the ocean side, we started off together and then my husband stopped with the kids so they could play in the sand, I continued on and took in all the sights. The last day, probably my favorite run of the week, we all ran together, took turns pushing the jogging stroller and ended at one of the best breakfast places in Pacific Beach.
I posted my runs each day on Daily Mile/Facebook and got a comment from a friend "I love that you are running on vacation. You're truly a runner now!"
And you know what, I believe it. I pack my running clothes to go on vacation, and am EXCITED about it. I am truly a runner now!
