Day 267 – Friday 30th November 2018
A beautiful sunny day. Did the last session of week 4 of my Couch to 5k. No problems, added 3 minutes to the final run with 10 seconds of Usain Bolt at the end.
After lunch we headed out to Portimão.
Portimão is a big town, a port, and the one way system was a bit of a nightmare. We eventually found the front and had a stroll around the Rocha beach area which was very quiet.
Day 268 – Saturday 1st December 2018
Beautiful sunny morning, Had a lazy day.
Day 269 – Sunday 2nd December 2018
Another beautiful day, a very sneezy day and another lazy day
Day 270 – Monday 3rd December 2018
Week 5 of my Couch to 5k today but I didn’t know if I could do it because on top of sneezing all day yesterday I had a rough night’s sleep. My legs were dead after the first run but I managed to finish the session. Felt shattered afterwards though.
Fell asleep in the sun after lunch but managed to stir myself to go on the camp’s Nordic walk.
Julie came along to petanque and she did okay.
Day 271 – Tuesday 4th December 2018
Another beautiful day; did nothing but sit in the sun.
Day 272 – Wednesday 5th December 2018
Boiling day.
Got the bus back to Luz; that was a palaver.
Day 273 – Thursday 6th December 2018
Yet another beautiful day.
Day 2 of week 5 of my Couch to 5k. I was supposed to do some 8 minute runs today but I know on Day 3 I have to do a 20 minute run so I thought fuck it just go for the 20 minute leg today. It wasn’t too bad although I couldn’t manage any Usain Bolt at the end.
Sat around in the sun all day until it was time for petanque…
