This morning I went on a run with the Ekiden from our hotel to a river. It was nice to finally get along a path that we could find a rhythm. We spent most of the first 10 minutes starting and stopping at traffic lights. On the return trip we ran through a park/shrine area where other people were taking a morning walk. It was a nice light run to start the day.

Hiroshima & Kyoto

I'm currently in Kyoto this morning and we are about to jump on a bus to see the city. Yesterday, we spent about 3 hours in Hiroshima visiting the Peace Memorial. Powerful stuff. I will provide a more detailed description in a few days or perhaps tonight when we get back to the hotel.

On a side note, I have managed to catch a bit of a cold which I find surprising since the Japanese all wear masks when they have ill symptoms. This is the second cold I've had in less than a month. My immune system is definitely not what it used to be.
