DID SOMEONE SAY “WINTER?”

Very strange behaviour, if you did. I’ll tell you why.

You see this morning I tried something new – I went for a 5km run. Which is weird, given that I’m known as a 4km specialist. It’s true, people often refer to me as “The Four Kay Specialist.” It’s either that, or they call me “C-TAP” which most of you know goes back to my “prolific” try-scoring habits of yesteryear.

Anyway, I digress.

So I pumped a quiet 5km run this morning along the following stretch, which, granted, is very kak..

Go right ahead and click that..

That’s 2.5km, right there – marked off in red. So I run to the end of the route, turn around, and go back. According to my calculations, that’s gives you 5km’s of crazy seaside panoramic views. Lest we forget the little honies running around and driving past in their incredibly large vehicles. Not that we’re moaning. No Sir – I’m absolutely fine with that!

What do you make of these pictures taken this morning during and after the run, as I took the scooter for a little post-jog joyride? A joyride which ended with a little swim in the Atlantic Ocean, I might add..

A morning swim at Bakoven never hurt anyone!

So it was during that run that I remembered some recent talk regarding the weather and how “it’s all over” and the fact that Winter had arrived. Let me get just one thing straight here – 2oceansvibe will decide when Summer is over, ok? We brought you into this season, and we’ll decide when we’re gonna take you out.

And if our word isn’t enough, hopefully those pics cheered you up a bit.

Hey, I’ll even throw in a little weather report for good measure!

You see?

It’s FINE!!

Seriously…. grow up.
