Great conditions. Tide was going out. It was overcast and low humidity with temperatures in the mid 70s. I brought 1.5L of water and 5 GUs, which ended up being enough but barely. 
 

It was hard to find good paths to run on the beach. It would either be slanted or wet or loose sand. So I spent most of time trying to find a good route that was conducive to running. 
 

I took a quick swim around mile 16. I went barefoot after that and carried my shoes. It was working and putting my sandy feet into my shoes didn’t seem appealing. 
 

Beautiful route. Great day.
