Sketchbook running Paris

Last Sunday I took part in the heatwave hexagone race. 10 km around the Bois de Bolougne to the west of Paris.

Monday nights and Saturday mornings, 'Let's Run Paris' club meets up for different runs around Paris!

My most recent Monday night run with the LRP club. Its summer time in Paris! 

Saint-Ouen spot

To the North of Paris. Just beyond the door of Montmartre you will find Saint-Ouen, where I landed last September.

                                                                     My green green gate
                                                 



First pages of my sketchbook! Different bits and finds, notes, watercolours, a card gifted from friends.



                 Morning or night when I come out my green gate I turn and Sacre-Coeur is in sight at the                                                                          end of the street.                



An old photo I found - View of the church at the end of rue Garibaldi
