Another snowy run

Plan today was for another run, I said I would go before lunch so just after 11am I was out.  Headed towards Affestside but didn't go the whole way it was very slow going!  Still lots and lots of snow!  Most of the paths are quite compacted and my shoes grip ok but still slide a bit.  Going up the hills it was more powdery and it was very slow going but great fun!  Out for an hour and left knee was making its presence known - fine now though.  So no ruuning for me tomorrow, I have training at the office anyway so will be riding.

  3. Probably, I have never ran on anything but firm sand though and mainly barefoot (spent a summer in America) obviously had trainers on today!

  4. I went to the gym last night to use their running machine(s). When I got there the place was packed so I decided not to bother. It looks like everyones staying inside,

  7. I can't imagine a heatwave as it is so cold here! Lots of clothes being worn everytime we leave the house! Oh and in the house as I try and keep the heating off!
