We'd quite a covering last March. Anyway, we're shortly flying to Madeira so it should be warmer there.

Don't know...Hi Markus, great to hear from you. Don't know about being 'fit as a fiddle'. More like ticking over at my time of life!<br />I assume you'll be doing the Challenge again? Goodness, what did I let you into at that fateful meeting at Benalder Cottage all those years ago? <br />We're flying to Madeira shortly. Camping and bothying has been replaced by hotels and half board now! But we're still running and getting out into the hills - which must be unusual for a couple with 160 years between them...<br />All the best to you.....oldrunningfox.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12113281696954817545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-117707725943210131.post-67063418250251010822019-03-01T14:22:29.244+00:002019-03-01T14:22:29.244+00:00Hi there Coach.

To my surprise, I actually enjoyed it and really look forward to my sunrise runs now.<br />Running twice a day is OK, but not if you have to do a day's work in between!<br />The main thing is to enjoy it, however you plan it...oldrunningfox.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12113281696954817545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-117707725943210131.post-36363201202673803792019-02-28T21:07:32.077+00:002019-02-28T21:07:32.077+00:00I'm not quite ready for summer to be over, but...I'm not quite ready for summer to be over, but things down here are definitely also starting to turn... The air is nippy most mornings, and our summer pajamas have long been packed away.

But playing coach means I need to spend my running time at the club and I don't have the energy to be running twice a day! Then come the weekends I just want a little lay in! <br />Then last weekend the weather was so perfect I wish I had been out in the evening running on the mountain as the sun was setting! <br />Like you I wish I will be running for many more years, so I can have the early mornings to watch the sunrise followed by a mid-morning rest!<br />All that said I did get to spend a magic morning in the mist on the mountain without just rushing through the run. we didn't beat the sun, but there was no sun so we didn't miss anything! <br />so need to find time to write a post!<br />coach dionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464619260070895703noreply@blogger.com
