Yesterday evening I rooted around the house and retrieved my running shoes, Garmin watch, headphones and day glow jacket from their winter storage. It&#8217;s time to start running again. The temperature this morning was a balmy 4 degrees, but the sun&#8217;s shining so I wrapped up and headed out. I&#8217;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&#8217;m not sure I really need the hi-viz jacket here in sleepy Wengen, but it does help with the inevitable imposter syndrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"809\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-809x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13057\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-809x1024.jpeg 809w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-237x300.jpeg 237w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-768x972.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-1214x1536.jpeg 1214w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-1619x2048.jpeg 1619w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/IMG_4530-scaled.jpeg 2023w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 809px) 100vw, 809px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bright sunshine ensured that the temperature rose quite quickly, so a walk after lunch would be nice.
