FInally at Siesta Key. Here for 6 days for some much needed unplugging. It was very nice to run on 62 degrees after all the winter runs. 8:11/mile.

In siesta. 56 at the start 66 at the finish. Humidity was not too bad around 50% and like I siad before getting a break from the cold has been nice. 20 miles, 4 MP in there. 8:58 overall. 

Lots of bikes and runners out there today. Ran into a girl who was from Ohio and running Birmingham Marathon in a week or 2. Small place. Lots of cool shops and thanks to the circle K for the bathroom use. The big public beach area had water fountains and that was a HUGE plus. I was getting tired around 17 and I knew it. I did my best to keep my motivation up and the good Lord saw fit to help at mile 18. Around 18 and 1/4 a big yellow jacket decided he wanted to hang on my leg. A few jumps as if I were on fire, a swat of my hand a stomp of my foot and the crisis was solved. Yes, many eyes were on me at that point. You're welcome.
