Delémont - Basel

Reported by Dipavajan Renner 59.0 km

Starting after a good night's rest we reached Laufen.

The city representative welcomed our team...

...and we got refreshments and gifts!

...plus a brief tour through the historic city hall...

Thank you Laufen for the hospitality!

The primary school in Grellingen gave us an enthusiastic welcome!

...together we arrived at the school yard...

....all the kids passed the torch and gave us big smiles...

...and once around the school!

Thank you Grellingen for the great fun!

As we arrived in Dornach, the kids lined up for "high five"...

Endre in action...

Thank you Dornach for the heartfelt welcome!

...we kept enjoying the Run under a blue sky...

The "Rudolf Steiner School" in Münchenstein was next:

...excellent poetry...

...the kids took us on a Run around the school grounds...

...discussing the last stage of the day...

Thank you Münchenstein for the nice welcome!

...our old running friends from Basel joined us once more on the final Run through the city...

...a quick photo session at the river Rhein...

Thanks for running with us!

...we reached the 3-country corner between Switzerland, Germany and France (which is actually in the middle of the river...)

The 3-country corner is a member of the international "Sri Chinmoy Peace Blossoms project" - a project to dedicate landmarks, cities and countries to global Peace!

See you again in 2 years!

Our today's coordinators did a great job!

Thank you Switzerland for now and see you again in a few days!
