Outer Banks | Marathon

Uncategorized

This past weekend I trekked across our beautiful state to the Outer Banks with my family. My brother and husband decided several months ago they wanted to do a marathon and after all of their training, it was time to put their endurance to the test! I really don’t know how they did it; I can’t even imagine running a mile! But they did it! They finished and really did well! Martin (my husband) had two feet full of blisters, but they really survived it without any injury!

Here are a few from the day:

Early in the morning before they started and at the start.

North Carolina is one of the most beautiful states in the U.S. and it was so nice to see another part of it. We really felt as though we were in a different part of the country because it is so different from the western side. NC is known for its lighthouses so we ventured out to see a couple of them.

Here is Bodie Island Lighthouse

And a couple other landscape shots….I am not much of a landscape photographer but sometimes it is nice to try something different!
