3 Mile Run: Fort Walton Beach, FL

We have been planning this Labor Day trip for a long time. Unfortunately, Katrina has put a huge damper on spirits. It is hard to believe that it took so long to get a signficance presence of help in New Orleans. I don't believe the racist charges that are emerging. I think the problem is simple lack of leadership, under estimation, and a storm and aftermath that was just HUGE.

My run, however, went well. I started out trying to run along the beach and discovered that the sand was too soft, the hard part to narrow and winding. So, I bagged that and went out to the street. My wife asked me to tell her were the 1 mile turn around would be since I was using the "Time and Distance" system. I did. But, when she went out she went the other way and never saw the landmark I told her to look for. Too funny.

Data:
Distance: 3.317 Miles
Time: 28:57
Heart Rate: Not Measured
Pace: 9:23
