Come visit the Kindred Spirit mailbox with me on Bird Island, NC!
When I was training for the last summer, I didn’t have an audiobook available, so I randomly chose Nicholas Sparks’ Every Breath, a book inspired by Kindred Spirit. It was my first introduction to the spot!
When I pulled my race tee out of the bag this weekend, there it was—the Kindred Spirit mailbox. I had no idea it was in the same place! It felt like fate
So I wrote a letter, walked down the beach to the mailbox tucked away in a dune, and spent a moment reflecting on how far I’d come.
Highly recommend leaving a message or reflection if you’re ever visiting Sunset Beach, NC!
