AHHH Mexico....

For the next three weeks I will be traveling all over Mexico to Puerto Vallarta, Punta Mita, Los Cabos and Cancun to learn about all the new hotels I now work for. Other than Chris, my friends and the boneheads, the thing I miss the most about Hawaii is the beach. I AM A BEACH BUM. I love it. I love swimming, surfing, paddling, sitting on the beach, running on the beach (this is really the only time I love running), and playing fetch with the dogs in the ocean.
After being in Mexico City for two weeks with no sight of the beach, it is very comforting to know that for $100 and a little over an hour of flying, I can be at some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. And look baby – there are tons of good waves for surfing!

90% of my time while in these incredible places is spent working or sleeping, but the rest of the time I get to go run on the beach. No Garmin, no heart rate monitor and a watch only so I know when I have to go back to get to my next meeting.

Here is my week of beach running in photos:
My first hotel visit:

I did a full stop in front of this place. Pizza and Beer and Tacos and Beer all in one place. My heaven. And not only is it happy hour 2x1, it is happy DAY 2x1 on Tuesdays. And today is Tuesday. Coincidence or do they change the sign every day? It took a lot of effort to continue running and check this place out.


Here I am all happy before my sunrise run in Punta Mita…

I got my red shoes on and I am off…

The sunrise

Woops – I didn’t realize the waves were coming that high.

There are my abandoned shoes after the wave hit

I guess I will have to run back barefoot

They even have coconuts on the beach here too. It is almost like I haven’t left.

Here I am all finished still smiling.

One week down and two to go before I head back to Hawaii for two weeks. There will be lots more beach running pics to come! I love my job!!!
