Today was the annual running event of our city. There are 4 different distances you can run. My father did the half marathon (21 km), which is the longest of them. He finished in just under 2 hours (1:57h, I think). Not bad. :-) I was just there to watch, with my mum and grandma. :D
The weather wasn't that great, unfortunately. It rained a couple of times. Not too heavily, but still annoying...

Here are some photos (click to enlarge).

And some more pics, from walking around the city:

Wow. Half marathon in under 2 hours!
We had luck with the weather. Sunny, some clouds. But now, we got heavy wind and dark clouds ... but no rain. Not now! =)

Yes, it's a good time, isn't it? :-)

Oh, lucky you! Well, as I said it wasn't terribly bad here, but could've been better... ;-) *gg*
