It’s that time of year again. Yesterday evening I rooted around the house and retrieved my running shoes, Garmin watch, headphones and day glow jacket from their winter storage. It’s time to start running again. The temperature this morning was a balmy 4 degrees, but the sun’s shining so I wrapped up and headed out. I’d forgotten how much I enjoy doing this, jogging along listening to a good playlist, with the occasional interruption from my electronic running coach. I’m not sure I really need the hi-viz jacket here in sleepy Wengen, but it does help with the inevitable imposter syndrome.

The bright sunshine ensured that the temperature rose quite quickly, so a walk after lunch would be nice. There’s no point going up the hill as everything’s still snowbound, so we headed down towards Wengwald. The scenery down here never disappoints.

We’re planning a wander up to the village after dinner. It’ll be interesting to see which restaurants are still open now that the season is over.
