Swiss adventure. Part Two

It’s not snowing (yet) so I hauled myself out of bed for a 30m lakeside run. Brrr!

That’s the longest since coming off the IC and it was hard, even at low cadence. Also, I don’t usually run in towns and it’s most disconcerting seeing my reflection in shop windows. Who is that man with the two month spare tyre?

I saw that this town, Weggis, has a yodelling evening coming up. Sadly (!!!!!) I won’t be here then. Can you imagine a yodelling open mic night?🥴

Ooh I’d love to go to a yodelling evening!! How brilliant would that be? Remember Frank Ifield? Showing my age here 😏😮😉

Well done for hauling yourself out of bed in the cold. But I bet the lake was beautiful.

Such a beautiful lake and bright snow high in the mountains.

I do remember Frank Ifield as well (and he Remembers You-hooo) but a whole evening?

I hope that was 30 minutes not 30 metres! Sounds lovely anyway.

Oh yes, 30 mins. It does look ambiguous. 30 metres was about my limit at start of C25K 14 months ago.

Perhaps you could try yodelling as you run? That really would be impressive! 😂 Enjoy beautiful Switzerland 🇨🇭

There’s a law against everything in Switzerland. I’m sure that yodelling at seven in the morning is strongly forbidden!
