Yeah its a really jnice and enjoyable thing to do. The only thing which is a downer in the UK is that you walk for so long and at the end of it you just feel like jumping into a river or sea or waterfall or something but its all tooo cold.

Lamise. Yeah its really wonderful going on a walk and then breaking to pray. My friends and I always find a nice spot usually somewhere high and pray. There are two places which were wonderful to pray at, one was the top of Snowdonia but the absolute best for me was the top of tauri Sinai (mount Sinai/Moses) in Egypy which was awesome, 7k walk to the top, set off at 12am and got to the top for fajr and then sunrise, was amazing.

Whats really fantastic is about 2hrs from there is Hammam Pharoan which is a natural limestone cave which gets hotter and hotter as u enter, 20mins boiling in there and then a swim in the red sea, wonderful experience. Thats why I went back and did it again and again

Algerians are not a nation that is into sports...apart from watching it of course...or the case of Football for the boys which is great, at least they keep a fair level of fitness...I have noticed that there is no incentive for people to exercise, there is no emphasis on the health benefits of exercising.

I have been quite lucky in my life to have the chance and facilities to exercise throughout my childhood and teenage years, until University that is where I became a slob, a smoking studying hippy! though I started again and I must say just in time before it's too late (age wise) and I feel so much better for it... and I can see the results...muscle tone and definition and good healthy skin and hair...the benefits are countless

What are your views on exercising and Algerians.

BTW: am racing on a 5K charity race on the 3rd Sep in Hyde Park...anyone cares to join me!

ill join you for the 5k run, ive alway swanted to do 1 of those for chairty.

as for algerians and excericse it depends on the individual, im involved with the algerian national ice hockey team and i can tell u the players have put alot of time and dedication into their sport, myself i train 3 times a week on ice with a game on weekends, i dont go gym but i have my own excercise regime i can do at home speicifcally for ice hockey, mostly using my own body weight, some free weights and alot of stretches.

Hang on La Casbah...do you mean to say that Algeria has an Ice Holckey team??? we have facilities for this sport??? are you serious? I have never even seen a ice rink for leisurely ice skating!

I mean that's great of course, I am just a little surprised...but than again Algeria is a big old country and communication is poor, so I guess that could explain it.

grass hockey is very very different, and i dont know any ice hockey players who like it, inline or roller hockey is much more similar without the ice.

Most of the players play in leagues in france, there may be a game later this year in canada inchallah.
