21:33 min - 3 miles (4.8 km)
I was running today in my old bright yellow vest, a leftover from when I was raising funds for the good people at Help the Aged charity.
A few French cars passed — and honked in greeting. I was puzzled at first but then realized what was happening. Apparently, they took my vest as a sign of solidarity with the ever-strong 'yellow jackets' — gilets jaunes movement against Macron's oppressive fiscal policy.
Surely something must be done fast about global warming, but not at the expense of those who keep the countryside going.
