Among the many drinking fountains in Basel, Switzerland, around 30 are adorned by the statue of a basilisk, the heraldic beast of the city. Despite growing up in Basel and living here on and off for over 20 years, I had never seen all of them. So as a summer running project, I visited each, covering a total of 51 km in just under 6 hours spread over seven separate runs.
