I'll wait and see how August training on holiday goes - running in
France should be fun.

Where about are you going? I've usually managed to fit in a fair
bit of running whenever we've been on holiday in France and have always
enjoyed it. The hard bit is finding good local maps. (It makes you
realise
just how much we take Ordnance Survey maps for granted when you go
abroad). Tim

The IGN (Institut Geographique National) maps I have found to be
useful when visiting France, the equivalent of our OS maps.
This link is from Stanford's famous map shop where I have always
found the foreign maps I need.

They look good, thanks for the link Brian. Will definitely get some maps
from them next time we go to France.
