History won't
The idea of running on sand was probably not one that other people would find fun. Sand made it harder; constantly shifting underfoot and making it harder to find any sort of traction. Not to mention it was gritty and got everywhere. However for this particular redhead, the sand simply posed a bigger challenge. And challenges were something the tall girl could really appreciate.
Alex was out exercising again- as though that could even be shocking anymore. It felt like a miniature eternity had passed since the girl had gotten the chance to run out on the actual beach without anyone bothering her. It was a wonderful feeling. A freeing feeling. She basically had the whole beach to herself at this early hour in the day, so she was going to use it as much as she liked. Which meant running barefoot alone the shore and occasionally stepping through the water. Though the closer she got to the sea, the more chance there was for her to step on a shell.
Yeah that was a feeling the redhead certainly didn't want to relive.
Still, it was enjoyable to feel the wind in her hair and the exertion of each step. Since her endurance had basically shot through the roof with the sheer amount the girl exercise, she just pushed herself harder every time to get that endorphin rush to her system. Currently she was going at a long-legged pace that most people might call a sprint. This was...what her fifth time running up and down the length of the beach? The sun was starting to get higher in the sky, but she had more time. Besides the run back home could be a race to beat the clock. So she just kept on running, leaving footprints behind in the sand.
Unaware that she wasn't the only one taking advantage of the early morning and empty beach.

[googlefont=Open+Sans]  _ i'm a bad dream. I'm a rad scene. I'm a tad mean. haking off the last vestiges of her sleepiness, Valeria stretched out her legs. Dressed to work out, the young mercenary had been excited to see a clear morning when she had woken up and immediately decided a run at the beach was in order. She ran almost every day, but she was looking for the resistance the sand offered her. Taking off her shoes, she stepped onto the sand. It was cool from the night air and Valeria grinned. Her aqua blue eyes didn't catch another runner on the other side of the beach as she started up her pace. Slow at first, only to speed up. The years of honing her body and exercising made it easy to fall into a naturally fast run. The more sweat the better. From what she knew, the beach was about a mile or two long, so if she ran in 10-15 times she would be set. It would take a chunk of her morning sure, but she needed the sweat today and to feel her adrenaline run through her body. The endorphines were a nice mix too as she stayed a bit from the water, choosing to use the looser sand to push her muscles to the limit. This was the stuff. The sun was finally starting to rise as she turned and started heading down towards the other end of the beach, staying closer to the loose sand. She may be short, but she was fast. Her uncle always made fun of her, saying she was practically a different species with how much she ran. Especially since she drank all the time. Feeling the first beads of sweat on her back just made Val grin as she pushed herself along the beach, her eyes catching site of a fiery red head who..was... "YOU'RE TALL!!!" She couldn't help it as she passed the taller woman, stopping and turning to catch up to her easily. Because of her height, she was fast, and Val had to move a bit quicker than the pace she had set, but it was nice. It was a challenge. Perfect.  | | ✉ | there! sorry about the wait! |

History won't
YOU'RE TALL!
Oh, guess she wasn't the only one taking advantage of the early morning after all.
Alex blinked in surprise as suddenly someone ran past her only to catch up to her again. The woman was shorter than her, but who wasn't honestly? The girl was tall make no mistake. And she might not even be done growing. Still, she flashed her random new companion a smile, though she did not slow down or stop running. Besides, the other girl seemed to be keeping up just fine. "Oh! Thank you." At least she thought she ought to say that. I mean, the girl hadn't said anything particularly mean. She'd just commented on Alex's height. Which happened frequently actually.
So since the girl hadn't offended her or anything Alex figured she might as well be polite to her new found running buddy (at least for the moment as far as she knew). "I'm glad to see I'm not the only one taking advantage of the early morning." It really was a sight to see someone else up at such an hour. Though it wasn't nearly as bad as when Alex had started her morning run. Even so it was pretty early for most people. Which was why Alex was also curious about how often this girl did this.
"Do you run often? It's so rare to see someone else out this early I feel like I would have memorized who actually was." And indeed some faces she did recognize. Those few and far between who would be up and about already before the day began for others. She definitely didn't recognize this fellow redhead. "My name's Alex by the way."

[googlefont=Open+Sans] _ i'm a bad dream. I'm a rad scene. I'm a tad mean. eeping pace with the taller red head was exhilarating as she ran next to her. She gave her a grin as they continued running, the sand pushing back from their feet as each step brought them closer to a goal of that euphoric feeling that Valeria craved when she ran. "Alex? Yes! I love running! I do not come to the beach often to do so. I needed a challenge this morning though." She pumped her arms, feeling that familiar feeling as her body warmed up into the running. Gods it felt amazing. "I'm Valeria! You can just call me Val." Her fokradiin accent was slightly thicker as she was running and not paying attention to articulating her words. Alex's tall legs gave her an advantage but Val had been training her body for years and years to take the strain it would take to keep up to a much taller amazonian style woman. Val glanced at her new random running partner then back ahead as the sun shone down on them. The waves crashed against the sand and she grinned, quickening her pace just slightly faster than Alex's. It was a challenge. The little orange headed mercenary couldn't help herself as she picked up her pace. It wasn't to prove that she was the best, but she delighted in a challenge against a fellow runner. It looked like Alex enjoyed running and Val wanted to see how far she could push herself and Alex. She had a grin on her face as her legs and arms pumped, propelling her small, athletic body forward along the sand. If Alex chose to speed up to match her pace, she would go just a bit faster, pushing her body as she ran. The strain felt amazing. If Alex didn't, Val would let the tall woman catch up to her and continue the pace they had originally set. It was nice to run with someone. It wasn't something she did often and it was good company.

History won't Someone else who loved running? Well wasn't that a pleasant surprise! And Alex could believe it too; from the sheer enthusiasm coming off the other girl, it didn't make it very hard. Plus she seemed to like challenges too. That definitely put an approving smile back on Alex's face.
Had she met an exercise buddy?
"It's nice to meet you, Val. I'm glad I have company for once!" Usually she took these runs as a time to clear her head and just move. It was a great feeling after all. But even Alex could appreciate having someone else along for the ride. Especially one who could appreciate the exercise as well. And not only that, it seemed. Hang on, was the other girl... Indeed, her pace seemed to have increased subtly. Out of the corner of her eye, Alex gave the girl a look. A challenge, huh? A smirk crossed her features momentarily. A rush of usually kept down competitiveness rose to the surface.
Oh, she was definitely liking her current company a little more now.
In response to Valeria's sudden increase in speed, Alex increased her own. Her long legs definitely gave her the advantage from a technical standpoint. Yet Alex wasn't one to underestimate others. Nor go easy on anyone once a challenge was issued- even one as silently proposed as Val's had been. If the other redhead sped up, so would Alex. If she did it again; Alex would do so too. And on, and on, and on until either they were full-out sprinting along the seashore or Valeria slowed down. This was a race now, and Alex sure as hell had no intentions of losing any time soon. Not if she had anything to say about it as she pumped her arms and moved forward with all the force her muscular build could put out.
