A good run!

I’m fascinated by your HU name: I was learning Catalan on Duolingo and the phrase “blue tortoise” kept coming up. I wondered when on earth I would come across it. Now I know!

There are a lot of worst things that you can get addicted to than running, in fact running is very good for your health, but remember that for newer runners only run on consecutive days after you have been running regularly for at least 6 months, hence when anyone is doing C25K the 'no running on consecutive days' rule is in force. Glad you like U2. to run to.

Well done on that run.
