Portugal and Paris

Last week I got back from a girly holiday with another midwife from work. We started off in Faro, Portugal, before spending a couple of days in Paris. It was a relaxed few days on the beach in Faro which resulted in some incredible sunburn. So sore was my arse that I nearly cried after peeling myself off the plane seat when we landed in Paris. It was nice to vary up my running routes a bit, and the run in Paris was especially great! Why am I running on holiday?, I hear you ask. Well, this year (like all others for the past 5 years) I entered the London Marathon ballot, but I've also promised myself I'll apply for a charity place this year if I don't succeed in the ballot. So far training is going well!
