Wanderlust – Beaches of Kill Devil Hills and Nags Head, NC. Soft, Sinking Sand Makes Tough Beaches to run on.

#Wanderlust continues… Optimistically, I thought I could get in another run on the beach today. The sand on the Kill Devil Hills and Nags Head was extremely soft. My feet sank down more than 50% each step and were unable to keep balance easily. I ended up walking ~four miles which took me almost two hours. These two beaches are tough for the runners.

The views were incredible. The sun was bright. The wind was gentle. The sand got into my shoes. 🙂
