7 AM
Run 2:00:00 [3] 23.0 km (5:13 / km)
Feeling somewhat better this morning (a proper night's sleep helped) and set forth on a long run on a very nice morning for it, a clear morning, starting under the stars and seeing the morning gradually emerge as the run went on - I can appreciate why sunrise is such a good moment in a rogaine. Of course, there is a consequence of a dry, clear morning at this time of year, but minus 7 isn't so bad for running if you're dressed for the occasion.
Enjoyed myself and reasonably comfortable for most of the way - at its best in the semi-rural areas in the middle (at least those bits which weren't downwind of the piggery). Once again saw a bit of the singletrack next to the Rhone with associated sharp climbs and descents, this time on the south side. Slower than I'd like, although I'm not convinced the Garmin is reading properly in the inner city (either that or I'm suddenly slowing to 7 min/km every time I hit the main square). If I was conspiratorially inclined I might be thinking that the top-secret mind-control beams being emitted from UN headquarters were interfering with the satellites.
