Much better run this morning although it’s a working day here and there were a lot more people around than when I did it on Sunday Morning. I managed it with no problems at all and even upped the pace for the last minute. I finally know what my distance for 30 minutes is and it’s 30 minutes! 😁😁 in all honesty I’m pretty slow covering just under 5k including warm up and cool down walks. Really don’t care though as I can run for 30 minutes and can improve on this as I get lighter and stronger. Pic is just a random Havana pic. This place is fantastic in every respect.

Great photo again Rigpig. You are right, you can run for 30 minutes irrelevant of distance. When you think back to wk1r1 and how great it is to get this far. Well done you 😊😊

I am so jealous of you living in a place like that photo. I think we now have the right to try to make you miserable with a cold grey rainy picture from here hahaha.

Well done though, you’re on the final straight and just 2 more runs to go.

We’ll get the flags out for your last run!
