Annecy again

Spent the night in a camp ground, our first of this trip, same one as in 2008, solitaire du lac.
On the bike path, my favoutite of all the world, 24 minutes out along the lake to the tunnel of doom, almost flat out back, 14 minutes, very hard at the end.
Tomorrow begins Criterium du Dauphine. We will see 6-7 stages. Many of the Tour de France riders will do their final praparations. Soe were on the bike path yesterday and today. Some have been in the mountains.

Hi there Bruce and Minnie, seems like you are doing quite a bit of running sb...

You must be doing my share; I am hoping to get some training runs in starting after my Accountancy Exam on Monday, really feel so sluggish these days, so can't wait to blow away the cobwebs.

Thanks for putting the great photos up, it is so beautiful where you are travelling, makes me dream of being back in that part of the world again.

It is pretty late over her, so I will say Bon Soir mon ami.

A big weather event is brewing for much of my local area this afternoon and weekend. Up to 100mm predicted to fall with damaging winds. I've been through a few of these periods now. I've started setting up for indoor training. This morning a quick trip to the shop for supplies that the puppy will eat, another short run solo, and a short puppy training session of fetch the ball. I ran 80 minutes just before the weather arrived. Tassie Masters Athletics posted this video from the Australian Masters Athletics Championships mixed XC race a few days ago on their Youtube site. A great memory from such a great event.
