12 kilometers "green" race

I think that I have to run the races which are held in my town. Although since the 1st of April I've got weight, this morning I decided to run the "Vivicittà" 12 kilometers race. Before we began to run the warm up I and Stefano had met some friends who wore green T-shirts. They were "green" runners because the race had been held in support of environmental protection. The atmosphere was very friendly and the weather was cloudy. I show you some photos of those "green" runners and I am near the two dogs with green T-shirts.


In the next photo you can see the two black knights before the race.

The track of the 12 kilometers race was hard and we ran four steep up hills. The time taken was 55:20 minutes.

After the conquer of Civitavecchia the siege of Tarquinia begins. The Black Knight Army never rests.
Beautiful report, tomorrow I will post the picture of the warm-up.

I love the green runners and the whole green idea. That’s a great time for a difficult route. The dogs are great as well. Did they run the 12km?

Cheers to the Black Knights!
