The 18th-in row Sea Isle City Beach Run yesterday was one of the toughest yet. Not for me, of course, as I was the driver and spectator for the event. Barb completed her 18th despite the worst conditions we have seen in those years. I sipped a Black Cherry Wishniak while the 1500 runners toiled.
Times were more than 5:00 off last year's because of high winds. It was rather warm also, hence the Philly classic soda. I saw a few Penn State Club Team runners but didn't get to say "hi".
The Streak lives on and the new shoes have worked out OK. Which is good, as I may opt for a 24 hour "Buffet Pass" at the Atlantic City Hotels. Living large...
Here's the start of the race. Skip ahead 2 whole minutes, as there was quite a delay at the star as is usual here because of the narrow Promenade and 1,500 crazy runners all jockeying for a starting spot in the front row!
Way to go Barb!! Hope the buffet was worth the trip to AC!! LTM
ReplyDeleteWe didn't opt for the buffet after all, but it is interesting. $55 for 24 hours at four different Hotels. I'll have to save up for weekend at the Bellagio and culinary extravagance!
