Fitness — It was pretty cool and pretty overcast and it was a very long and very relaxing walk about. I read quite a few magazines and stopped for a couple Gatorades. A little tired at the end and I want to start running soon.

I missed the cold rain because I started the run quite late. I need to sort out my Nokia N95 8GB because I use it as a phone, as a podcast player, and, using Sport Tracker, I can track my run, my pace (slow) and my route using the built-in GPS. Unfortunately, I ran out [...]
