Good run again along the Westerschelde. I saw some wonderful birds....sea gulls, pheasants, and others that I don't know their names. Also saw LOTS of rabbits jumping around and some sheep. What's interesting about running along the dyke is that ships pass through on their way to and from the North Sea. Saw an HUGE boat carrying LOTS of containers.

Anyway, ran warm/easy (12:57) (11:41) (10:34) (10:15)

then tried some marathon pace miles (9:36) (9:23) (9:01)

then warmed down (10:41)

May or may not run tomorrow morning. Have to leave for the airport at 6am. Suppose I could put in a few miles as we walk and wait for a connecting flight in Atlanta. We shall see...USA here we come!

Have a safe trip. Sorry Holland didn't win.

Thanks Burt. At least the game with Holland was a good one. We had a lot of fun.

Running on the dyke sounds fun. I hope your travels go smoothly.

Hey...had safe travels. Now in nice and hot Tucson. Didn't run today, Thursday, a bit tired and jet lagged. Will get in a run tomorrow.

Welcome to AZ!! I am sorry I am not in Tucson -- well, not really, I am pretty happy to be in the cool pines of Flagstaff. However, I am sorry that I am missing your visit!
