I got up at an unearthly hour of around 4.45 a.m. just so I could be ready and prepare for a jogging session with Fr Julian this morning which began at 5.30 a.m. It was my first real jogging session in many, many months.
We jogged from our place at via degli Ibernesi to the Circus Maximus and did two rounds along the Circus. It was already bright when we headed out into the streets with some cars and people passing by. It is interesting to note that within a short stone's throw from the Convitto, there are already several historical monuments and sights: Circus Maximus, where the chariot races of ancient Rome were once held (think Ben Hur!), closer to the Convitto is the Trajan's Market and between these two is the infamous Colosseum.
Jogging pass these places is like going through a time warp all at once which lasted about an hour to the Circus and back. A good way to get a Saturday's workout! ;-)
