It is a beautiful summer Saturday afternoon and Washington is experiencing it's warmest weekend in history. Enjoy a run along the wild and scenic Olympic coast of Washington State in Olympic National Park. Ruby Beach is well known as one of the most scenic wild beaches in the Northwest. Start south of the parking lot and run towards and past Abby Island. You'll run over rocks, sand, and past rocky sea stacks, tidepools, and the steam rising off the sand.
I do apologize that about 38 minutes in, I made the mistake of stepping into some deeper water trying to go around a rock and the camera got splashed. I hate that I didn't know there was a water drop on the camera lens. If it annoys you too much, you can stop the run there. But you can keep going to see the steam coming off the sand as you finish strong. I'm sorry - I wish I could re-do it but I live too far away!
This run video can be used in many ways but it is designed particularly for use on a treadmill with TV on the wall as close as possible to the treadmill and a size that gives the runner the feel that they are running through the scenery on the treadmill. As always, be careful to be sure to continue to run straight on the treadmill. Occasionally runners who are absorbed by the scenery can turn with the scenery on a virtual run and could accidentally step off the treadmill. Please use the video with care.
