Running again. In Italy aug. 15th is a national holiday, the feast of the Assumption. I spent the day at the Bolsena Lake with my wife. In early morning (06.30 a.m.) the temperature was perfect and unusual for this period (18.3 C - 65 F), so I had the possibility to make a "normal" workout by the lake, inside the wood and through the scenic ancient town of Capodimonte.
At last now I can run regularly even if slowly and for no more than 10 km. Better times will come.
The celebrations. At 11.00 p.m. we attended, sitting on the shores of the lake, at the fireworks show. It was really amazing.
The town was crowded since the day before with outdoors markets and street food.
Pets. With pride I introduce you my sweet cat, the king of the garden and the owner of the house:
Thanks for posting the photos of the King of your Garden. What a handsome boy! Glad to read that you felt "normal" on your run.
