Missing the running BUT....

Been here a week but not had chance to run yet, the hotel gym opens 9-7, I prefer to run either early morning or late evening but may try to fit a run in today.

The BUT was I've just completed 2 days of scuba diving out here, seen dolphins, blue spotted rays, obviously, loads of different kinds of fish and the odd Conger eel.

Hope the view from my room isn't too much, happy running everyone.

Where are you LeeU - I’m really envious of the diving element of your holiday . It’s fabulous being down among the watery wildlife isn’t it!

I'm in Hurghada, Egypt, the diving is, believe it not, as strenuous as a 5k run.

I've managed to get Mrs LeeU snorkelling in open water AND out on her first try dive.

The hotel has a man made lagoon that is excellent for snorkelling in.

Ah, I’ve done a few liveaboard dive trips from Hurghada so I can imagine what you’re doing - I remain envious! Say it quietly - the running can wait!!

Oh looks lovely. 👍 And the diving sounds excellent. Good for Mrs LU for braving the waters - hope she’s enjoying it. 🐬🐟🐠🐡 A lagoon sounds a perfect place to start.
