BFG rave runs: Meuse westside

Memorable in terms of the terrain encountered - 15th century cobble stones, bricks, asphalt, concrete, gravel, mud track and grass. Yes, Maastricht is so small that 15 minutes out, it was the country side. 

Usually my runs were on the eastside of the river, headed south. This time, I went north, crossed over the river and continued on the westside due south. The medieval landscape quickly made way for small cottages, isolated industrial buildings, parks, and finally the path ended at a river dock and I had to turn around. Weather was nice in the 20s.

5km of warmup, then starting at MP for 1 km with 500m of recovery, increasing the pace by 10 sec every subsequent km to 5-km pace. Total 18km.

The second day was a modest 14km along familiar territory. Did some further exploration north-side and south-side in order to get the mileage. Missed a nice dinner at a chateau, but settled for chinese takeout instead.
