as winter arrives in London with temperatures forecast to drop to 0, it helps to look back on all those languorous evening strolls around Lancaster in the warm embrace of summer golden strolls with that shimmery someone nature on full kawaii mode 🦆🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐣 in italy, one dresses out of respect for others. as this signore seems to have been doing his entire life. the dolomitan lake whose unbelievable color distracted me so much, even from a distance, that i fell and broke my wrist. dio vi benedica 💙💙💙 (photo taken one-handed using my large camera while in forte dolore) my second day of training in the dolomites started on beautiful trails and ended in l'ospedale 🏥😖 after a few hours of running fueled by one of italy's many gifts to mankind - pocket espresso, which is a tiny packet of liquefied chocolate and espresso, straw included - i took a gnarly tumble down a ravine and snapped a few bones. i then proceeded to hike out 10 km to the road with my wrist hanging off my arm at a lovely 45° angle. (en route, i still managed to check out the lake to which i had been running 😎). scenes from a single day of 35 km of trail running in some of my favorite mountains on earth. where else can you climb up and up on gorgeous single track, eat beetroot gnocchi at 3000', and have a cappuccino for €2.50 served by a bespectacled italian on the way down? vroom vroom, under the bolognan sun 🏍️ 🌞 why does this statue of mother teresa look like a cross between R2-D2 and a sandworm? 🤔
