    What a beautiful shot. Running in the sand is not so easy either.

    Your title reminds me of that long ago movie. Don't remember too much about it except wonderful background music while he was running.

    I like your photo and it catches the lonely runner. I ran until I was 70. I liked the peace of being inside myself for the run.

    I haven't seen this movie in ages (not since I was a lonely long distance runner a lifetime ago) - as Red said, your photo captures it perfectly.

      Thank you Lulu and Red. It's so true that running can be very lonely.
