Today's steps were achieved indoors at the Y.
But I'm hoping that the weather will allow me to run outdoors tomorrow. But what about Zermatt? How will I get in my steps? Well, because I've only got one climb planned, I'll have plenty of time to get in a run, walk, or hike, many of them in the shadow of the Matterhorn. Here's a trail that takes you from Zermatt to the Hornli Hut then back down the mountain to Zermatt.
I actually hiked this trail when I was there 9 years ago. This time I'd like to try and run it. There are dozens of hiking trails around Zermatt that are made accessible thanks to the network of cable cars that handle the steep inclines for you. For example, the train to Gornergrat takes just 30 minutes, then you have a choice of easy walks downhill with constant views of the Matterhorn in front of you.
Can't wait!
