Ria de Ferrol Half Marathon

[Bierzo Baggie]

Hi there blue razor,
Didn't see you in Lugo. Finished the season there and very nice it was too...first they let me run despite my extremely dodgy accent and obviously non-affiliated appearance. Secondly, despite Lugo being a bit of a dump (sorry lugo...I was born in Tipton so I know one when I see one...) it was a quite remarkable 10km circuit. Don't think you could find a finer last 2km anywhere...they send you up on to the roman walls where you do a complete lap above the old town. By that stage with tired legs it felt more like the great wall of China. Anyway, I finished, they gave me a T-shirt, a medal, a can of "go-faster" isotonic pop, a yoghurt and a slice of "empanada". An excellent time was had by all and it's one to note for next year if in the end you didn't go.

That's it for me, for a while anyway. Might get active again round about March. What's next for you?
