Day 135 - Guinea Bissau 🇬🇼 Much Needed Rest Day ——- A marathon in every country in the world for @prostatecanceruk and here’s a non running day! 🏃♂️🙈😴🤪 ——- Here’s a little sneak peak at the video of my journey from Gambia to Bissau a couple of days ago. Check out the full video on @vimeo (Just google Vimeo Nick Butter). Share it if you like it. Comment if you want to see more. ——- Today was hot from about 08:00am. I managed to doze back off to dream land and sleep till 10:00am ish. ——- I did virtually nothing today. Lots of admin bits and pieces but other than that it was a day lying down. As you would have read from yesterday’s run, I needed today to rest. Blooming tired. ——- The food here is the worst since North Korea 🇰🇵 Regardless I was hungry so I ordered a few bits and pieces and then napped. I watched some Gavin and Stacey (season 1, classic) and managed to fall asleep again. I obviously needed it. Waking up, I went through my usual routine of packing. Isolating the hand luggage items like sat phone, iPhones, lap top, chargers etc, took my clothes in from drying in the sun, and then had one final shower and cleanse of the day. It was so humid I was sticky again in minutes but the clean feeling was good while it lasted. ——- Other than sleeping I was fairly productive, I wrote a little of my example chapter for the book publishers, I edited the above video of my journey from Gambia, and even found time to read a book I found in Katie’s book shop in Gambia. (Timbooktu). The book is called ‘The World in Conflict’. I bought to learn why these weird and wonderful places are like they are. I should really learn something rather than just do a bit of jogging. ——- Tomorrow is an early 03:50 alarm for a 04:00 transfer towards my final destination of Ivory Coast. A long 8 hour layover in Senegal (the place where I was stranded this time last week). I just hope I can find a non conctrete floor to sleep on. ——- I hope you enjoyed the little video. It was a day to remember. #runner #runnerguy #africa #africarunning #marathon #marathonman #Gambia #guineabissau #hot #hotguy #fit #guy #travel #roadtrip #love #training #runningtheworld196 (at Guinea-Bissau)
