Marathon du Medoc

When you wait for summer eagerly, you might do some decisions just to get to the feeling. My wife suggested last autumn that we cuold try the Marathon du Medoc some day. Marathon du Medoc a.k.a. The Wine Marathon is located in Bordeaux, France. Marathon is famous about funny costumed runners and of course wine which runners also drink during the run.

So now we are planning to run 2010 Marathon du Medoc. I have studied the Bordeaux area already in case I drop in to some vineyards for souveniers and growing tips. Yesterday when we had our 4th anniversary, we tasted some Medoc Bordeaux. Château Sénilhac 2005 (Cabernet Savignon 55%, Merlot 40%, Cabernet Franc 5%) was beautifully aged wine. I tasted some blueberry in it even Alko´s pages mentioned currant. Well it is tasters opinion. Wine dry mouth on first taste, but the length of taste is long and pleasent. Wine has some sediment so if you buy it remember to decant it carefully.

My summer schedule is starting to fill fast. I need to practice for Marathon (and now I mean running not drinking) and part of my daily cycling to work will change to running. I won´t make any time goal for marathon but I wan´t to RUN it from start to goal. Marathon is on September so I´ll have good time to get on shape.
