By the way

I never did run enough kilometers while out on vacation. Tuesday at work I had a hectic day, but finally got out at 3:30 pm. Running a 41:46 10K felt like hard work.

Today I took it easy, went out at lunchtime, and had no watch on. The t-shirt I had on is all cotton, and is probably still dripping wet. At about 7-8K I started holding it out in front of me so I could breathe.

The funny thing out along the Isere the last two days has been the number of gnats that end up smashed from my chest to my neck. At least I didn't have to eat any today.

While we're talking by the way, Stuart managed to run his 10K in... 55:55. That was a record for him, and very much under the hour he planned to beat. Kudos, Stu!
