I have mentioned that I am running the Urban Trail on Sunday. Morgane, Enzo’s girlfriend, is running it as well. She is doing the 14k not the 24k which I am doing. Morgane texted me on WhatsApp to ask if I wanted to go with her to pick up our bibs. It is very nice… Read More Reminders of why life is good
The weather is fabulous in Toulouse so it makes the days and evenings very pleasant. It makes wandering the city and enjoying the activities around the city fun.
