They say that your body keeps ‘working out’ and burning calories for 12h ish after a big, heavy exercise (such as running, for instance), so you can imagine the scale of hunger we had after completing 30 and 60k when we woke up the next day!. Sadly, almost everything was closed on Sunday morning in Las Palmas around 7am (how surprising.. lol), so Panaria was the only one – and tasty! – choice. On the way there we walked down some really beautiful streets and corners, and were lucky to see the sunrise, city awakening and the most beautiful light that makes you believe in magic :) iPhone doesn’t do its justice but you can still see how beautiful and peaceful it was:

On the way to Museum de Columbus – the house where Christopher Columbus has lived for a while :)

That’s the house! On the right hand side with greenish front entrance

Acts of kindness.. and money exchange :)

Nice little square

..and cafe nearby. That light !!

On the way to catch a lunch and ferry to Tenerife)

I mean.. just look at this beauty!. <3

On the ferry before leaving Agaete

In fact it looked scarier than it really was :)

Hello, rainy Tenerife! We made it through the storm :)

Good to be home.. even though it’s raining outside

Cozy snuggles with the lil ones <3

And Good morning! The sun is back with its warmth & blue skies! And somebody needs a comb and coffee…hehe :)
Rather than associations with the race, Gran Canaria for me is in these few moments that were captured on the way to catch the ferry from Agaete back to Tenerife. When you finally can relax and enjoy the world around you; when you look forward to coming back home; when you are happy about one more small achievement (small for everyone else maybe, but big for you) and already start planning next goals! x
