90 days to go

Spring has finally arrived! (Let's assume that the snow forecast for Tuesday is an April Fools prank).

This means more running in the daylight from now on. By the time the race rolls round (90 days to go!) there will be almost no night in Stockholm at all, so it's happily inevitable.


I also finally got my hands on a guidebook for Kenya, which I can hardly sit still whilst reading for excitement. It mentions the marathon. Specifically, it says "Thanks to experienced rangers, helicopters and spotter planes, your only worry should be the heat and the 1700m average elevation." Excellent.

I also enjoyed the arrangement of books in the 'Africa' section in the bookshop. Top marks for alphabetising. Geography might need a check though.

  1. Does the guidebook for Kenya, while mentioning the marathon, say anything about "being chased by a lion"? You might lead the queue: Laura, Rich, the lion king, the ranger, the helicopter. It would look like a funny animation movie. Do you remember the circle running race in Alice in Wonderland? :-D I already imaging you in your "obnoxious" orange running suit. For sure you will sparkle among the others
