Flensburg to Schleswig – 32km
20C
Terrain: flat cycle routes and road

Started Stage 2 from Flensburg to Celle (approx 300km) today and it started with a rainbow!

Today was a nice easy route, essentially in a straight line so I couldn’t really go wrong.

It’s interesting what you notice. Sometime it’s just getting more in touch with nature. The location of the sun for one, something I’d never really paid much attention to (bit shameful for someone who loves the outdoors).

Listened to a great podcast along the way, an interview with Robin Arzon, a real inspiration from New York who has swapped careers from corporate law to essentially being an athlete running/cycling/spinning and is busy pushing boundaries and inspiring others to “write their own story”. Robin has also run with a running crew in New York called Bridge Runners, part of the same global urban running movement as Run Dem Crew, my wonderful running family in London.

It’s definitely worth a listen. On itunes it’s The Rich Roll podcast, RRP #99 Robin Arzon: From Corporate Lawyer to Athlete.

Arrived in Schleswig to a beautiful blue sky.

Then some more time with family 🙂

I also now have my very own guardian angel, an amazingly thoughtful gift from my aunt Regina, big love.
