2 different hemispheres

I have two favourite runs in the world.  My Northern Hemisphere favourite run is running along I-40 just outside of Winslow for miles and miles.  Nothing but red dirt, tumbleweeds, and a hot sun beating down.  

My Southern Hemisphere favourite run is running the coast of the North Shore. Some parts are rocky and slippery and other parts are flat beach sand made just for runners.  When I get hot I run right in the water.  

I did the latter run today on my lunch break while listening to Christmas carols. Yes, my life rocks.
