A 26 000km morning!

Bright sun over green fields..
A phone call from a sports journalist.
And the arrival of my cheerful team. :-)

Steve & Dave are part of the UK Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team, and as usual
that meant very gentle and positive support. Such a joy to share the run
with the crews that comes out to help me!!

Dave drove the support car and Steve ran the entire stage with me - his
longest run prior to this was marathon (42,2km) but today he with ease ran
10km beyond the marathon distance and now is an ultra runner :-)

We finished in the low sunset; enjoy the pictures!
