Running? Me?

So, GB and I have made a resolution of sorts. We are going to start running in the mornings. (except mornings after karate nights because we can't go to bed early - as JenZ points out, it's good incentive to go to Karate!) Crazy? Yes - but I'm advertizing this so all you can kick my butt if I quit.

This morning we got up before the crack of dawn, which wasn't too hard since we were jetlagged anyway (GB was up at 4:30 and I was up at 6:00). Got dressed, and after a quick glass of orange juice we were out the door with our pampered chef all purpose timer set to 15 minutes (one way of course). Started with a brisk walk to the ravine, then a light (very light!) jog over the bridge, down the stairs and to the next bridge. That took 15 minutes, so we turned around, 3 minutes of walking back to the stairs, running up the stairs, over the bridge, up the hill (which GB said we would walk up, but them made me jog up!) and back down the street. Followed by 3 more minutes walking to cool down.

It actually wasn't so bad! We'll see how hard it is next time though. Apparently the goal is to do 25 of the 30 minutes at a running speed. But really, it's the 6:15 wakup call that I'm most worried about.

Dobri Den from Praha

Hi all,
this is my third attempt to post - hopefully I won't run out of time this time.

We are having a great time in Prague. We have been walking walking walking and enjoying the beautiful weather and architecture of the city. We spent an amaziing 2 days touring Prague castle, and have spend the rest of the time on various walking tours throughout the city, with pleanty of time to stop for a bear or wine on an outdoor patio or two.

Our un-vetted, un-edited pictures are here if you want a look.
