well, we are now contnuing on our journey to Sctoland. It is much more rainy, but just as beautiful. Our adventures haven’t started here yet, but rest asured you will know about them as they happen. As for pictures, I know I promised them but since I am limited to internet cafes and timed access, the picture will have to be shared when I return. I can make a preentation or maybe Dan can make a viral video of the pictures. As for the continuation of the marathon….
mile 7
Mile seven I have caught back up with Oz and we contiue on running through the park. The leaves have changed colours and have begun their descent onto the pavement. the grass is still as green as ever (or as green as your envy) and we are looking around this mile, just taking in the scenery.
mile 8
This mile had the atrocious 50 meter hill in it. For any runners out there, that was sarcastic and yes, I was gloating just then. It was at this hill that I got a sudden surge of energy and started to pick up my pace a little bit. Oz couldn’t quite keep up with me here, so this is where we parted ways, and I continue onto the next 18 miles on my own.
Mile 9
We are bck in the streets of the city, coming into some residential areas. I see hundreds of people cheering on the streets on every corner, and in every pub. I am not running in a big crowd, so many of the cheering crowds are able to spot me out and cheer. I feel like I am kind of a big deal at this point. But that will change.
