Au Revoir Clifden, hello Dublin

I'm back to the city where Guiness is made- not continually drank.

Didn't do the 14 miler- did the Sky Road loop again, roughly 12 miles. Still had to walk parts of it due to the hilly nature taking the fizz out of my legs. Not the guiness from the night before. The hills.

Well 12 miles is a decent stretch anyway- 2.30 hours of continuous movement!

So back to Dublin, home cooking and a delectable girlfriend. Played a gig Saturday in Kilnaleck, Cavan. Place should be taken off the map and quarantined in my opinion. 7 people remained to listen to our set and the only one clapping for each somg was the local whore who had eyes for Cian I believe. This is the town that God forgot but we did have the craic anyway as the pub put us up for the night.

Chelsea 3 wins from 3.

Planning a 16 mie run - twice round the perimeter of phoenix park this week. Did a nice 4 miler with Gill today and badminton/football tomorrow.
Registered and paid for the Marathon today so no turning back, no freaking out and no backing down.
Half marathon race comes up at the end of Sept. I should have a 20 mile run done by then though and then begin to taper off. Thats what my schedule says anyway.
Cifden was a great experience. Some weeks I did two gigs most nights. What surprised me was the lack of hangovers, stress and not ever losing my voice. A very good sign. Thinking of playing ski season in Meribel now. Thats before I have convinced young Gill as to the merits of this plan in the snowy alps
