Run 40:00 [3] 9.0 km (4:27 / km)
Another decent run once initial stiffness had loosened up - really surprised at how well I've been going this week given the less-than-optimal training environment. Some of this one was devoted to trying to find a functional ATM (without success in the morning, but got one at lunchtime).Towards the end passed a sign displaying Hanoi's road toll (415 this year compared with 522 last year; about 2.5 times that of Melbourne, a similar-sized city, which isn't as bad as I thought it might have been).
The workshop finished today - a really good group to work with. I said in my closing talk that I hoped to get to everyone's country eventually, which might be stretching it a bit, but Bhutan and Nepal would definitely be especially high on my to-do list. One thing which did take me rather by surprise was when the representative of a certain SE Asian country whose repressive government has been in the news a bit lately (who was, after all, an employee of said government) got stuck into his country's rulers in no uncertain fashion over afternoon tea.
I fly out tomorrow night, so probably no updates until the end of the weekend.
