Venice O Meet. With the 5th highest flood in history, and water knee deep across half of the city, the organizers delayed and delayed the start. They eventually decided to have a punching start with free order (start when you want) at around 11am. But by then it was too tight to be able to run and get to the airport. So decided to skip the race and head out to the airport. It had been a cold walk from the hotel to the event centre in knee deep water. The organisers should have cancelled the race altogether or delayed it until teh city had drained properly. But hey went ahead for a while, annoyed the local citizens and then had to cancel the race for later starters due to complaints. Hope they are allowed to run the race again next year!

Did a bit of a warmup in anticipation of getting a run. But everything delayed and chaotic and so abandoned any plan to race and headed out to teh airport to catch the flight to Dubai.
