Considering a December marathon. Looking at Lanzagrote, Malaga, Pisa or maybe all of them lol

Lanzarote nearly killed me Joe. The heat and running back into the wind was a horrible experience. Out-and-back route: 1:35 out, just under 2 hours back! Puerto Del Carmen is a nice place to stay though.

That is incredible consistency. Well done. I’m guessing no significant injuries?
