W9R2 - this time on a flat course!

Did my penultimate run this morning, one day later than planned due to a late night and too much wine on Tuesday!

The weather this morning in the Algarve was perfect so we took a short drive down from the hotel to the Ria Formosa nature reserve and set off along the track which runs from San Lorenzo golf course towards the airport. This track is about 2.5km long so just perfect for the 30 minute run plus warm up and cool down walks. Mercifully it is also as flat as a pancake! Lovely way to start the day and all that remains now is for me to do the graduation run on Saturday morning at Long Eaton Parkrun. The scenery and weather won't be quite the same though.

I promised myself that I would complete this programme before my 65th birthday and I am going to do it with 3 months to spare😎
