Run toward Turtle Beach by addickens at Garmin Connect - Details

Run toward Turtle Beach by addickens at Garmin Connect - Details

This training run fell short of the goal of Turtle Beach by about 45 minutes. I believe I was forced to stop early because I did a little extra leg work in the gym yesterday and left to late for today's run therefore hitting warmer temperatures (mid 80's).

The map is a little deceiving. If you look at the total time minus the moving time you will see about a 15 minute difference. I think the difference was caused by me accidentally turning the watch back on and then off while riding in the car after Debbie picked me up. I actually stopped running a little north of Stickney Point and the route depicted has me running to south of Stickney Point.

When we arrived at Turtle Beach, we could tell that Spring Break is in full swing. The parking lot was almost full. We were able to find a spot to park and take a short walk on the beach before heading over to Turtles on Little Sarasota Bay for brunch.

All in all still a good run. 5.5 miles in the mid 80s is like 10.5 in the 50s. :)

So is it called Turtle Beach because see turtles lay their eggs there?
