Sunday run

Laurence and I and the kids were in Montpellier this weekend. Or rather, I was in Montpellier this weekend while Laurence and the kids get to spend the whole week there. We rented a lovely house next to Montpellier, in Castelnau le Rez.

Laurence wasn't feeling up to a long Sunday run so we agreed on a compromise and decided to run the same route as Saturday but stop for croissants and pain au chocolats en route. Actually, since we didn't find any suitable bakers on the circuit through Le Crès and Jacou, we continued on to Clapiers and added a little extra distance which was more than offset by the calories in the viennoiseries !

12.5km all up in just over an hour. Shoes were great but I really should have chosen them a half size larger. This is the problem of buying them over the web.

Lovely scenery, and really pleasurable running with Laurence. The temperature was a very pleasant 22 - 23°C which now feels moderate after running in the States.
