Fave rave runs

I really want to rave about running right now I am luving living for running. This morning was so sunny & serene I was dazzled by the beauty of Melbourne as the sun comes up & it is vibrant with lushness. I ran through fitzroy gardens, a pretty park & through the MCG park which is impressive, across the Yarra river & around the botanical gardens, so many awesome views. Which got me thinking about my fave ever runs (not including races) to rave on about, here's my top 5...

1) New York City - central park. Luv in summer when the squirrels are squirreling around with me & all NYC walks of life are out & about loud & proud.
2) Morpeth around Mitford steads. Running alongside medeival castle ruins, in the spring the little lambs are out to play too & it feels like home.
3) London - the Thames south bank. Across tower bridge, along past the Tate modern, Westminster, Big Ben, the London eye & the houses of Parliament even in the rain!
4) Rio - Ipenema beach. Along the infamous beach full of beautiful people & beautiful views of the fascinating favellas.
5) Sydney - Coogee beach to Bondi beach. & have a wave dive in each of the bays, there are stunning ocean views, hot lads, 1 or 2 whales & lots of hellish hills....

So I have done my first 14k this weekend, carb loading with some gluten free gnocchi & a chilli tomato & bean sauce for the next 36k tomorrow .........
