PEACE RUN

Luxembourg 12 August: Binsfeld - Hachiville

Reception in Troisvierges

Luxemburg runners from Clervaux joined us for the first run of the day.

One was a bus driver, one a tram driver and the other a gardener.

Irina cooked a delicious meal for us last night and is still smiling in the morning.

Team getting ready.

The first meeting took place in Troisvierges (Luxemburg), close to the Belgian border.

We were received by representatives of the town.

A very kind and warm-hearted gentleman, who organized the meeting.

His colleague on the left gave a warm-hearted speech, congratulating the runners with their cause.

Troisvierges for peace!

Four extra runners joined us for the remaining 7 kilometres to the Belgian border.

It was a taxing run, because we were a little pressed for time, the course was hilly and temperatures were rising!

Our gratitude for the perseverance and good will of the Luxemburg runners.
