Trail Run 2:32:51 [1] 8.1 mi (18:52 / mi) +1676m 11:29 / mi
The weather looked good for Tuesday and since I didn't have to be on a train until 1, Maartje suggested I run up Rochers de Naye. Sounded fun! She came the first bit, we stored my bags at the train station, and she ran with me to the base of a gorge in Montreux, where a Brit took a photo of us. Then it was up the gorge, which was nice and cool, and then on to roads and trails through some towns before the real climb began.
Well, also before was a poorly-signed intersection where I ran out a forest road for a while which was nice, but after a while found out I was way off course. Oof. So, back to the trail, saw the British guy again, and then up, up, up. Warmer now, some nice running, and lots of people to pass on the switchbacks, then steep up a couloir to the summit. Good views of Lac Leman, and Mont Blanc was in the clouds off in the distance.
Trail Run 2:58 [3] 0.2 mi (14:50 / mi)
Down from the summit to the train, where I had time to eat the two suggested pieces of cake (Carrot and blueberry pie). Train down to save legs, and because I didn't have a good other route down, and because it was only a few extra CHF to get a SBB CFF FFS day pass since I was off to Zurich.
