Day 531

1.  International parkrun day was celebrated in a different country to the one we live in, eating at a French patisserie for breakfast, which I think covers international, but we didn't even contemplate attempting the parkrun bit!

2.  Instead we headed up to the West End this morning for a quick bit of shopping, a whistle stop visit to the Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery, and a slightly longer than planned speed walk around Glasgow University campus looking for the way out before heading back into town to meet schoolfriendofMG750 for our annual lunch.  So lovely to see her and hard to believe it's been a year since we last saw you G!

3.  Lunch eaten and many laughs laughed it was time to meet up with sisterofMG750 and my niece for a bit more shopping before dinner - definitely got the carb loading bit of the training ticked, albeit in a slightly less liquid form to that of fellow parkrunner!

4.  Back from Paris yesterday and jetting off to San Francisco on Monday (which really is international!) it was both a shame that my sister wasn't able to be around for the whole weekend and great that she was able to join us at all - especially as she has taken the decision to run tomorrow!

5. Dinner eaten it was time for a bit of a pamper session with all her recent duty free purchases (nothing quite like raiding your sisters toiletries!) before a relatively early night. Like in Brighton we have walked far too far today and think we should have given a bit more thought to our pre race prep but too late now! Besides I actually think the aim was to enjoy our weekend and we seem to have got that bit sussed!
