Back in Hanoi!

I'm in Hanoi again - seems to be my second home for the past couple of months! This is the third leg of my work here to support Vietnam colleagues work on the project I manage - Connecting Classrooms.

We were in Ho Chi Minh City yesterday from Saturday and before that, Danang in the centre of the country.

I really will add some photos and info and links and stuff and spend a good few hours updating the entries soon (!!) but for now I must go for a run in the hotel gym. It's midday so it is too hot outside and I've got to the stage where I think I need to run every day until November if I'm to crack the 1000km target!

Anyway, up to Danang I was 794.8km - 28km which leaves 766.8km, which is a bloody lot!

In Danang I ran by the river and was joined by a charming young thing called Lan who spoke a bit of English - my first, 'social running' experience!

I guess I probably did about 4.8km then so down to 762km. Then in HCMC I did 5km on the treadmill in the hotel and an estimated 9km from the hotel to the park, around 8 times and back. I also did another 5km in the hotel and I'm just about to do a 10km run here so it will be down to - 731km.

My plan must be to do another 11 tomorrow then 20 on Sunday followed by 300km in September if I am to get anywhere near my target.

I'm going to have to get serious!

A few more kilometres

I have time to Blog but I can't seem to get round to it. I do need somewhere to record my running though and as I've started here, I'll carry on using it.

I'll delete this later and add something more interesting, at least to me!

28 more kilometres to report over the past few weeks - pretty poor but I'm going to try to make amends!
