I've decided to give up long river runs for a while. What's the point of going to the mountains if you don't take advantage? (Actually, several people have told me that Grenoble itself is one of the flattest cities in Europe; it's just that if you go any direction out of town, you go up.) To that end, I did a 4.9 mile loop: down to the river road for a warmup, then up, up, up to St. Victor, then up about .25 miles more, then back down the curvy road whose name I can't remember, then back through the park. Hills are hard! (But hard is good.) I'll post my route as soon as GMap elevation server is back up.
