14 Miles Along Ocean Drive Part II - The Ongoing Need for Port-O-Johns


I always love the port-o-john at mile 19 of the Boston Marathon.  I see it on my runs a few days before the big event.  Each year it has a humorous sign.  Little did we know that we would need one so soon after our first pit stop, but if you run - you know.

Isabelle's knee was hurting, so she thought she would do 4 miles.  I secretly was scheming to keep her part of this run longer.  The 4 mile mark was exactly where a need for a bathroom came up.  We looked around and didn't see any possibilities.  At this point, Isabelle was going to turn back and head for home, but I knew we would lose her for good if she did.  I thought of several places we may find a bathroom.  At the same time, Isabelle started searching for construction sites that may have a port-o-john.  We kept striking out until my last thought...the Sports Complex on the Salve University campus.  We rounded the corner and saw this in the distance.


And it was open!


And it was never used!


And it was near an outdoor sculpture garden that the rest of us could enjoy!


Back on the trail,  Isabelle stayed with us to run to a place where she could take a shortcut.  Yes, the run continues.


If you visualize, you will always find what you need.
