Ivo Graham In Orange

A long trot round Alexandra Palace and along the less familiar bit of the Parkland Walk back to Highgate Wood in the November sunshine. Featuring Rob's band's gig - and comedy gigs, Paul's latest theatre visit - and writing limbo, some sterling work from the wives, Rob's parkrun success, a stunning skyline, some notes on Christmas - particularly the classic movies, Paul's progeny's professional possibilities, the ebb and flow of fitness, tortoises and parakeets, anticipating '26, Q&amp;As, Paul's internet offer, Rob's fear of falling over, exercise vs age, and whether 5ks are harder than marathons (plot spoiler: they aren't).
