8.3m Cologny

Took the boat over to meet Tenke at Geneva Plage.

Fortunately, she did not shoot off up the hill like Aurelien did the last time I was here, but set an easy 9 min mile pace up the hill which was fine to get going. As the hill eased off the speed crept up and suddenly we're doing 7:15 minute miles. That settled back to 7:20s and I was happy with that. Tenke headed home when we looped back to the lake side, slightly sooner than when I'd been up here with Aurelien.

But on my own I held the pace fine, enjoyed the view over to the other side of the lake with the snow covered Jura hills and picked out buildings I knew from the city scape. The water fountain was looking good with a slight wind and low sun highlighting the dramatic landmark even more than usual.

Taking out the first two miles (down to the boat and the hill) it was a pretty good run ave. pace around 7:20 min miles.
