Formula 1 is at Hockenheim, Germany today .... i found the track really tricky to plot (how i'll do Singapore later on i have no clue) so it came out a bit long..... puff pant! I took Laura's Stepping Stone with me and finished the route in that time plus an extra 5 walking in at the beginning .... Sunday morning ..... needed a gentle start!

Vamos Fernando!

And Cool Sunday Runnings to you all :-)

Thank you indeedie - it's FUN!

Have you seen it now??? Were you suitably delighted with all the action??? Smashing race and yeah, it's a nightmare with the whole Sky thing .... i'm with you on that!

Fab race, lots of action on lap 1 as always and Hamilton from 20th to 3rd :) Lack of mention of Rosberg since he was sooooo far out in front, that man seems to be doing no wrong when his car works, seemed to be a lot of cars touching each other today too. Hope you found it delighting as well!

I surely did! Particularly liked the Kimi Sandwich! I'll be happy if ROS wins the championship, after all HAM has one already .... roll on the weekend!!!

Hee hee did you like that one? I made the rule that i have to start from home so it's not easy ..... there are some really tricky tracks coming up but i'm loving my little project!

The F1 season will end??? Eh??? Nooooooooo ;-)

Super race today - love a little muddling in the mix :-)

I'm watching Le Tour but not the motor racing which leaves me cold. I love your running route idea though Bo, that's real neat.

Vrooooooooooooom!

Thanks misswobble!!! It really is just a spot of fun but i'm loving it!

Oh i'm so with you with le tour .... i simply cannot get enough of it - did you see yesterday???? Such stunningly beautiful scenery and those drops off the edge - i was having kittens having seen so many GREATS go skidding and sliding tens of metres down the tarmac and cobbles aaaaaaagh!!! Incredible - they are superhuman and teeny weeny tiny guys with engines in their legs .... unbelievable stamina and those bursts of energy come from where??????? Like today on the final sprint??? Where did that all come from?????

M_Y! Thanks sunshine :-)

I've already plotted out next week's - Hungary - and i may post it without a picture of the real thing - it's not looking good! Very hard shape! Really having a good time with my little project! Apart from anything else i enjoy running a route just for the route's sake!

Even though we have the rare joy of back-to-back race weekends now, there will be a LONG break to the last weekend of August after that boohoooo .....

You did so well today - did they really give you a YELLOW T-shirt when you finished???

Thank you and to you too, when you're finished with your Cool Restings :-)
