FSC Postcard from Istanbul, Turkey

Bill Blount sporting his FSC shirt in Turkey!

"Here is a picture of me in my FSC shirt in Istanbul, Turkey. I am standing in front of the Blue Mosque built between 1609 and 1616, one of the most beautiful mosques in Turkey. We visited during Ramadan when Islamic devotees must refrain from all eating and drinking (including water) between sunrise and sunset  every day for a month. Nearly every day we spent in Istanbul, I ran near this mosque. After Ramadan ended I shared a park with Turkish runners who did post run Yoga stretches on top of a hill I ran up and down. By the way, Istanbul has about 18,000,000 people in its metro area.  Best wishes, Bill Blount"
