Vina, vino and tired, but happy

I've had a great weekend. I have just returned, resplendent from my first race in Chile, having won a prize as the first woman in the open category (which apparently means when you don't run according to your age); not that it really matters, it was just great fun and the club that I am running with are incredibly friendly, the place I went to - Vina del Mar - was one of the most beautiful places I have been to in a long long time, the run was along the coast, the glass of wine last night in preparation was fab, and all-in-all, I am, as they say, muy contenta. I know people think it's a bit insane that I like running, and I know runners can get a little sad when they talk about it all the time, but suffice to say, this was a wonderful way to spend the weekend and we finished it off with a lovely lunch, overlooking the yacht club and the bay, drinking more vino and a little bit of cerveza. Have just got back, tired, but satisfied, with lots of new friends, a bit of a sun tan, a weekend out of Santiago (which is great in itself), a new personal best 10k time, a medal and a big smile on my face. I hope you are all happy. Hugs and kisses.
