Good morning. Yesterday was a late start for the day because I had been up until 4am the day before drinking strong zeros at devhouse. When I woke up Damian had already left to start his day. He likes to get up early and go exploring, I wish I had that energy. It had been a few days since the last time I had gone for a run, and knowing the weekend was going to be busy I planned to go for a run today.

I planned out a route for a 21km run and when the rest of devhouse had gotten up and ready to leave for their adventures to Osaka Castle and Umeda sky tower I headed out with them. I had mapped out a path that took me for a short path that had stops to Osaka Castle and then from there I would run along the river where I didn't need to stop and I could enjoy my long run.

When I made it to the castle I found that there was a running path around the park and this would make for an enjoyable run. I ran around the castle and then onto the river and was really enjoying the scenery. I was feeling really good at this point and decided that I would push myself and go a little bit further and run 30km! This would be the longest run I have ever done, and I knew that it would destroy me but I needed to do some longer runs in preparation for my marathon and I was really enjoying the scenery.

I made it to my halfway point which was 15km away from devhouse. When I was running along the river it was very peaceful and at one point there was a young man playing the trumpet up on the hill which added to the vibe. I finally made it back to Osaka Castle where I would do one loop before heading back. At this point I was dying and my legs were so sore. I was regretting going the extra distance but I had already committed to, so I pushed myself to get there.

I finished my run just around the corner from devhouse and stopped into a conbini on my way back to get a recovery meal. When I arrived back at devhouse I was met by Damian who happened to be walking down our little alleyway at the same time. What a coincidence! Readying for another bar crawl tonight I had a shower and a long nap to recover and get back some energy. When I woke up my legs were so sore, it was hard to get up.

When the rest of devhouse arrived back we all got ready and headed out for the bar crawl. Somehow we had decided it was my birthday so I knew it was going to be a big night! The first bar we went to had a deal for unlimited drinks but there was catch that there was a long line so we only actually got 2 drinks. The second bar was similar when we got there and there was another long line, but I had a free drink pass from a game at the last bar so I waited anyway. The line eventually cleared out and I had a few more lemon sours.

The third bar was a little better, but by this time the shots we were getting between bard, plus the extra shots for my birthday were really starting to kick in and I wasn't feeling too well. I headed outside and then I saw Damian who had also headed outside and we went to McDonalds to get some food. There we met some Germans who were also on the pub crawl with us and we ate together.

The last place we went to was a club and because Damian and I were late from getting food, we had to wait in line with all the regular people not from the crawl. Inside we met the rest of devhouse and had a few more drinks and a bit of a dance. I was getting quite tired early so I headed back to devhouse to get some sleep for the night.

See you tomorrow!
