Canmore Runner

Dear readers,

Belated happy new year!  May 2017 be everything you want it to be and then some.

So, you may have noticed a certain degree of radio silence on the blog. In fact, WordPress informs me that it’s been three months since my last post. This is not to say that I haven’t been running but I have been lacking in inspiration – both to run as often as I would like and probably should, and to blog about it.

Hopefully that changed this week when I found myself back in Canada, back at my in-laws in Kelowna and, predictably enough, back on the trails of Knox Mountain. I also found myself on back on the bathroom scales and was horrified at what I saw – a few extra kilos of inspiration right there.

It was only a couple of gentle, chilly, 6km runs over Knox. But it was my first outing on trail (as opposed to tarmac) in weeks and it was such a thrill to be back there. And the views were rather superb:

The good news is it left me wanting more of the same. And being the new year and all, resolving to make that happen seemed like a fine idea, whether here in Canada or back in Switzerland where we’re currently based. Finally, a new year’s resolution that I might actually keep.

Until next time, happy trails.
