=/\= The Holodeck, Ensign. =/\= came the reply. =/\= Running on a starship is too boring for me. =/\=

When Starr arrived at the Holodeck, he would enter into a beautiful sandy beach. The sand was a glorious white and soft and fluffy and a crystal blue ocean stood nearby with gentle waves making their way into shore. Allison soon approached with a smile. “I hope you’re good with a beach run!” she greeted him cheerfully.

As Simon entered the holodeck, he looked around. The ocean by him was always cold, but the beaches were nice. It wasn’t as stunning as the beach provided in the holodeck, even if it was only a holographic representation. “Works your muscles differently through the sand, so I’m good with that” he replied as he began stretching before the run.

“Agreed! Plus, the scenery is way nicer,” Allison responded with a grin as she lightly jogged in place to warm her muscles up before some gentle stretching. “Are you ready? We’ll start slow.”

“That is true,” Simon replied as he finished his warmup. “Let’s go,” he says as he started to run alongside the chief enjoying the scenery as they did so, starting with a light jogging pace.

Allison easily jogged beside Starr, enjoying the feeling of the warm sand on her bare feet and the sun providing just enough warmth on her skin without the risk of overheating. The waves continued their gentle concert next to them as she kept them on the slightly damper and more compact sand near the water, still keeping the pace on the slower side for now.

“So how are you settling in?” she asked with a smile, still at a slow enough pace that her breathing and talking came easily.

Starr kept pace with the chief, and also wasn’t at a point where more effort had to be put in to breath, so responded “Pretty well, slowly getting to know more of the crew, and I feel like I won’t be getting lost on the ship as much now,” Starr said with a slight chuckle. The feeling of the damp sand beneath him made it a bit easier than on the drier sand, and the constant sounds of the waves bought a sense of peace and calm to him. It wasn’t the peace and calm he was used to living in farmland in the countryside, but the sound of the gentle waves reminded him of the sound of the wind in the trees when he would go running through a local forest to him.

Allison started to increase their pace a bit, enough to start showing some exertion but not to rule out chatting. She moved slightly closer to the waves so that the final trickles of each wave would roll over her feet, keeping her cool. “Well, if there’s an emergency, they can call you then, since I’m still getting lost,” she responded with a laugh. “Have you been finding things to keep you busy on R&R?”
