We're smokin' stew in a tent down by the river with 4 Feet Running! Or, as the French say, Quatre Pieds Courent! This week:
- Nik and Dan do a 3-miler by the Fall River waterfront
- They briefly meet up with their favorite newspaper hawker
- Dan bids a frustrating farewell to the Crazy Man Running Store and finds a new shop
- Nik is feeling better, stomachwise, which is helping her keep up with certain British podcasters on RunnerPlus challenges
- They meet a regiment of French Revolutionary War re-enactors camped by the river, nice people who nearly bayonet a civilian
- Nik and Dan can be Parisian taxi drivers
- There's broken bicycle banter and chi chit-chat
- They get some feedback from very nice people

The Braga Bridge in Fall River spans the Taunton River.
This is the Battleship Massachusetts, a decommissioned ship. Later, it'll take part in a Revolutionary War re-enactment by lobbing live shells onto the musketeers.
The 85eme Regiment de Saintonge is camped in Heritage State Park.
War re-enactors do love to cook stew over an open flame, don't they?
Apparently they sleep in these tents, right out in the open in a tough city like Fall River. It's a wonder their muskets and powder don't get stolen.
Some very nice war re-enactors with the Regiment de Saintonge. We're beginning to suspect they're not really French...
