Hi,
Since I finished my first and last Marathon in Tiberies last year, I still run most of Friday morning on the shore. On one side I have Mount Carmel and the other the Mediterranean sea. It is a flat and calm running path and it crosses many of Carmel streams.

Today it was pretty extreme. the weather was clear so I didn’t have to fight winds and rain, but apparently it was raining all night long. All of the little streams that usually does not exist become a challenge to cross =).

Take Care

The Northeast stream I met. Usually there are some other here coming from the industrial area behind the road. – Carmel streams

2nd stream – I wasn’t the only one with a problem to cross it.

3rd stream.

The end of the 4th stream.

The 5th stream and the fenced area that hold the sea turtle eggs

The 6th stream

Beit Oren Stream – The last and biggest of Carmel streams I crossed….

…I had to go all the way up the stream to the train bridge to cross it (and to run from the train).

The Kurkar ridge and the Carmel Mount behind it. In old times (and till the 19th Century), the ridge had hold those streams and swamps were created behind it.
