I think I think researcher, I think we've heard enough about where to get good cocktails everywhere you go that we know that that is probably running a Marathonry is at the top of your list when you travel. But you never know. Never say never, Megan, because it is becoming popular. It's really it's a thing, isn't it. Lots of people do it. They do Berlin, Paris, London, New York.

Yeah, and Sydney was just added to the World Majors, making it the seventh World Major marathon, along with Berlin, Boston, Chicago, London, New York, and Tokyo. I was at the New York Marathon though a few years ago. My brother ran it, and we were on the sidelines and we were all in amongst that whole hype and stuff and what he said, which was really good idea. Someone had told him to put his name on the front of his shirt, and he said that was great because when you're flagging, you're feeling exhausted, people are shouting and cheering you on and calling you out by name and going.

Am, yeah, hey, But I did a bit of research because yes, they've got all the World Majors, but there's also some really quirky ones. And I noticed that in January. So it's all sold out now too late for this coming January, but there's the Walt Disney World Marathon in Florida. Now, disney World is so big it could fit into the city of San Francisco. That is how big Disney World is. So you run through all four parks. They've actually got five k events and family events, and then they've got what they call the Dopey Challenge at forty eight miles. So that sounds like a really good time to being Florida and also won't be as hot January and Florida the Great Wall of China Marathon in May. Now, I have walked a little segment of the Great Wall and they are steep, so.

Heavy and incredibly uneven.

It would bet a lot of plunging, yeah, yeah, yes, and a lot of shuffling because there's a lot of people. A friend of mine's run it and she said, you really just you know, you didn't get your stride on. You just sort of shuffled along with a lot of people for a long time. But I mean, how amazing, how iconic. That's pretty cool.

Laying absolutely, I'm looked at doing a trail run through Africa at one point, and the reason that I did that was because my partner, who was very good at supporting me on trail events and things one hundred kilometer walks and stuff like that, said to me I found this amazing, this amazing event. You just run through the wild and there's quite a few wild animals, you know if you look after. But but but I get to go and do a safari and then they do lovely lunches for the supporters and things like that.

I was like, Okay, so you're going to be having lunches and drinking champagne. I'm going to be running through the wild, potentially getting eaten by something while you're relaxing and having a good time. Anyway, that's the way these things go, wasn't it.
