Notes

Our first morning in Annecy and John has a cold but we have to go out together as is our habit on our first morning in a new place. Besides, it is a gorgeous sunny morning and it will be nearly 70 degrees here today, something unheard of for this area at this time of year. Typical average high here in November is 40! We continue to be smiled upon by the running Gods (but we also cry for the people in the fire zones in CA, the terrible backlash of this global warming).

Looking ahead, this will clearly not be a place that I ever choose to skip a workout! We are lucky to be here for a week 1. Because we are suddenly so tired of moving around every two or three days and 2. Because Lake Annecy is two short blocks from our front door and is as beautiful as fairyland. We just jogged easily along its shores today but I will give it more of a go tomorrow. It is 42K around and while that is well out of my fitness range right now I am pretty sure I will have to give it a go. To date, my best day on this trip has been my circumnavigatin of Lake Wolfgang. That was well shorter at just 18 miles, and I probably shouldn't base my experience there on what might happen here but, well, can't help it.

For now I will just see what tomorrow brings. My legs were pretty sore today (and the rest of me too) after yesterday's workout. Tomorrow I should be back to fine.
