Didn't run quite the route I'd planned, but still managed to do 8 miles in the sunshine. First time in Amstelpark, which is a lot more park-y than most of the rest of Amsterdam's green areas.

Playing catch-up after two weekends off. Now it's getting lighter, I prefer the early mornings. The streets belong to the dog walkers, the early-shifters, the delivery drivers, the walk-of-shamers.... read more

After the marathon, my goal in running now is to see as much of Amsterdam's roads and canals as possible. Today's route took me the length of Apollolaan with its strange sculpture; through Rivieren... read more
