I wish they would plow the roads…

I ran 11 km today but it was hard because I was sinking into the snow and having to slide back three inches for every step forward. My pace was 8:26, almost a full minute slower than I would like. And I worked a hell of a lot harder too. Anyway, I can’t complain. At least I am still getting out there.

The 2.5 km of trails on the particular route I take require a lot more concentration due to the hardened footprints and uneven paths. Lots of ankle work there! The weather was mild, only -5 with no wind, but the shadows are long and the sun is low on the horizon. I want spring!
