# 1115 - Rowan Atkinson Marathon on Jan. 6th, 2007

After some "normal" days with much work, but no time for running, the Saturday Jan. 6th, 2007 was our next marathon day. So we met with 9 human runner & 1 dog on our 16.3 laps home trails. The marathon was dedicated to "Mr. Bean" aka "Johnny English" aka Rowan Atkinson whose 52nd birthday it was.
The weather was pretty good for running: just 7 °C (45 °F) with some clouds, but no rain.
I did the whole distance together with Manfred who's nearly fit again after a week of Egyptian diarrhea which had been a souvenir of a boat tour on the Nile in middle of December 2006. So we did a good 1st third, a nearly good 2nd third and then he just looked to "survive". Which means, we lost about 16 minutes in the 2nd half and finished after 5.52.01 h.
Anyway - it has been a nice day on the trails!
