In the evening of day 1 we were sitting at the poolside when a very organized looking couple strolled past with a walking sticks. We grabbed them for a chat in order pick there brains about where it was good to walk and run. They were kind enough to get their maps out and showed us the route they had taken up into the mountains. That was Day 2 sorted!So after the same hefty breakfast we struck out in to the mountains. Despite the heading in a direction that turned out to be a bit crap for running we eventually found a good track up the mountain and had a great days running. We totalled just over 20 miles and it felt really good. The brisk downhill parts on the way back were great and I could feel my core and upper body working to stabilise itself. I love this stuff!! As charlie remarked the joints and cartilage take a pounding but we really powered our way back and it left that bionic feeling in me for the rest of the day. Nice. We were out for just over four hours again.
Oh yeah, almost forgot to mention the outstanding t-bone we had in the evening of day 1! The restaurant owner even gave us a lift home!
