Bristol run....

I'm not doing so well on the 50 mile challenge....but am chipping away still......got 5 in the other day in Bristol...what's my total? I've lost track......20? a little less?

more ROCK oriented blogging is as always available over at our main site


lots of cool stuff to look at on a run through central Bristol.....much more interesting than running around my neighborhood all the time.....

this guy is named Colton, and he has his own square......(bonus fact: Theres a venue on this square that was host to fricking JETHRO TULL the same night as our gig).
memorial for WWI and WWII, in same square...
a little piece of the old town wall.....
University......well built for students who want to learn the classics, while still feeling secure in the event of a siege....

bristol is a great city...there's a really class backpackers hostel called bristol backbackers which is in a lobesided building but has many many pubs and the coolest downstairs bar..

ive had many a great night in bristol including december 07 at QOTSA...i ended up on a roundabout at 4am..the last time i did that was in birmingham after a PUSA show..

i think its a UK thing?

Looks like a great city! wonderful buildings.

I didn't have any other ideas how to tell you but I'm guessin' you'll read it here.

This running thing is pretty cool, and I see that you're looking for places to run in each city. I've got a suggestion for Dublin. There's a large park on the northside of the inner city called the Phoenix Park. It's great for a run, I've done it myself before. Wonderful scenery and some deer running around too. It's the largest urban park in Europe.
Hope you enjoy it if you go there, please blog about it. :-)

Can't wait to see your crazy show, I'll be at the Dublin gig.
