Course de l'Escalade Training Runs

Thursday, November 7, 2008

We decided over a month ago to join Martin and Doreen in the annual Course de l'Escalade run. This run snakes through Geneva's hilly old town.

I began my training with a reconnaissance jog on October 26th and quickly realized how different (and difficult) this course is relative to my usual flat routes. A subsequent jog with Martin confirmed the route.

I have completed other training runs since then including a flat 16.1 km (10 miles) run along the lake. The following is a compilation of photos taken during the runs on the nicer-weathered days.
