well today I got to use my jersey and run in a local 10k. It was fun, the weather held, and my time was decent considering the course and my relaxed effort. 6k down hill then 4k back up....I was 26 minutes down (4.20 pace) and I finished around 52:00. 26 mins back up.
I went to find Adele and she was at the very end. When I found her she was on the side of the road in the bushes, she saw me first and called for my help. My first thought were that she was sick of injured....but as I neared I could hear the noise of Kittens in the bushes as she told me she was trying to rescue "puppies" yes I know,its a learning english/italian thing...puppies /kittens, whos counting?? So we ran the last 3 kilometers carrying these 2, 3 day old little kittens. As we came to the race end, I could hear the announcer say "Senora Adele...bla bla bla (a bunch of Italian shit i didnt understand) Senora Adele, rescued kittens and ran to the finish with them". Someone had radioed ahead, so there was a curios group waiting and at that point people began to gather and take pictures and look and see. kinda cool! and yes they are sleeping in the chair next to me after a syringe feeding session.
Enjoy the pictures!!
PS. there is a picture of a guy in a yellow shirt flipping the camera off!! He sort of startled me with his effervescent attitude , coming up from behind me waving the universal symbol of peace and love. Im thinking fucking great who is telling people I’m American. My Canadian cover is blown, number one rule while traveling. Claim to be Canadien to avoid conflict…they are the most docile milk toast group on the planet. You cant ransom a Canadien!!?? Any how this fellow was not telling me what he thought of my countries politics. He was wanting me to tell a mutual friend Hello...that all! NON crisis averted.
So HELLO Rocco from your buddy in yellow shirt…..
The kitten thing is so cute.
