hawkwing_lbI made it through another 12-14 pages of Le culte d'Isis dans le bassin orientale de le Mediteranée today. It's not exactly light reading - in fact, it'd be fair going in English, and is quite hard in French, with all the run-on sentences - but it's very educational. I figure if I learn two or three new subject-specific French words every evening, by the time I'm done it'll only be medium-hard reading. (Today's words: hardly, vow [serment], rebuild [remonter], come across [rencontre], come across [retrouver].)
That did take two and a half hours, though.
Running: 1.15 miles in 10 minutes, 1.5 miles in 13:50, 2.0 miles in 19:30. Not too bad, at all.
Cycling: 33 minutes on a cross-country exercise bike programme.
Climbing: seven routes, five of which were 6As, two of which were 5s. Rather pathetic going, actually. But I have the hour of hard work in the gym previous to this as my excuse, to which I will cling.
Vladimir-the-cat has disappeared, possibly by jumping out a second floor window whilst I was out. I do hope he turns up. I've become very attached to him over the last couple of weeks.
But cats. You never know.
