Pyramids Run

Friday AM we ran from where I live to the Pyramids- around 20K. It was tough...dusty, windy and hot, and, in keeping with our dead animals theme on our friday runs-- we were treated to a dead horse. nice.

Once we got there it was worth it though- we had our breakfast at a little tea shop and ate traditional Egyptian food. Ful (pronounced "fool"-cooked fava beans with spices and oil) and tameya (we call it falafel). here are a few pictures:
