Week 8

[Antonio247]

Saturday. I went out for a run at 9.50 am. It was a lovely morning-20ºcelsius/68ºFarenheit. I started at Almadrabillas park. I had my legs a bit stiff but they got better after plodding a few minutes. I went along the sea front to the bridge on the dry river Andarax. It took me 21 minutes. The sea promenade had taken me 16´30´´. I met a few runners who overtook me or were going the other way. I got back in 41´55´´ continuing to the “Cable ingles”, an iron deck built in the nineteenth century by the British to transport mineral from mines in the province of Granada to the ships. Then, I went back to the park where I continued untilminute 50 doing around 7 kilometres in all. Then, I did some stretching and went home where the song “Hotel California” was being played on the radio in the kitchen. I had two oranges and two mandarins as the first part of my breakfast while listening to that beautiful old song. After having a shower, I had a cup of cocoa milk and two slices of bread with olive oil as the second part of my breakfast while listening to other old songs such as “Strawberry Fields”, which apparently was composed by John Lennon in Almería while shooting a pacifist film here because the house where he was staying in Almería reminded him of Strawberry Fields in Liverpool.
