Megan loves her job as an 8th grade special education teacher, but looks forward to summers RELAXING on the Jersey Shore! This is her 3rd summer with Relax. This summer she shifted south from LBI to spend more time in Ocean City. According to Megan "I love getting to spend more time with all of my friends here, and have had a blast working in the store. Although, my biceps are a little weaker since giving up my delivery duties!"
During the "off -season" aka- September through June, she spends time teaching and volunteering as the President of the Auxiliary Board of the Children's Home Society of New Jersey. It's a wonderful group of ladies who work to raise money for Foster Care programs and families for at-risk children in New Jersey. They throw some really fun events and do some really rewarding work.
One of her favorite things to do, whether down the shore or land-locked ;) is hit the running paths.She's completed 3 full marathons, 12 half-marathons, and the LBI 18 miler twice! One of her favorite places to run on LBI is from North Beach to the neighborhood around the Harvey Cedars Bible Conference. (12 CEDARS AVE HARVEY CEDARS). She also loves running down to the inlet at Barnegat Light in the morning. She loves watching all the fishing boats head out for the day! On the way home, she runs through the beautiful cul de sacs of High Bar Harbor. There are some beautiful homes and you might see a turtle or two as you run along the canals with the spectacular light house on the background.
When running in OC, she likes to split time between the boards and the south end. She hits the marsh lined road that heads out to Strathmere towards Avalon (55th street). She is rewarded with beautiful views of sea and marsh. According to Megan "I do have to dodge rabbits, turtles, and I have to be extra careful not to trip as I watch the herons! Word to the wise: lots of port of potties on this route at Corson's Inlet Park and at public accesses along the way! Do bring water! "
Most of all, Megan loves spending my summers relaxing and enjoying time on the beach and in the water with my family and friends.
