But most of all I've never been there before, or anywhere near there in fact, so it is an excues for a nice holiday. Thinking of flying there but then getting trains back (over 4 days) so would be part of a mini-adventure. I've done marathons crossing continents, Countries - Chester (England & Wales) & States - Bluefield (WV / VA). |

Gritts!
Malaga is always a good option, Foxy😀. Also did Freiburg in 2016 for my 100th. Enjoyed the race and city! Gonna try NYC via GFA route this year, failed last year. Would like to avoid sport tour if I can, but maybe only option. |
