    Country Bagging..

    Right, a new one. How many countries have you run in.

    Basic rules:

    1) Be honest
    2) Minimum 3 mile run at 10 mins/mile minimum pace
    3) Countries can count twice if different regions are visited separately (i.e on different trips)

    No BS please.

    I'll start off

    England
    Wales
    France - Normandy
    France - Lyon
    Germany - Hanover
    Germany - Kiel
    Denmark
    Holland
    India
    USA

    I'm sure many can do better, be interesting to see.

    If you're not running fast enough, walk instead!!

    Yes, I think RobW would be up there, though he says he only walks now he seems to be in a different country every few weeks.
    Have to count me out, it's the 10min mile condition that eliminates me!

    Couple of my favorite runs when I used to travel abroad with work were along the esplanade in Porto, Portugal and from Tel Aviv to Old Jaffa Port and back in Israel

    England
    Wales
    Scotland
    Northern Ireland
    France
    Italy
    Spain
    Switzerland...

    ...that's probably about it for me! 10 min/mi is a bit unachievable when "running" up mountains in the Alps, but I'm counting them anyway as they were proper fell runs!
