Description from Strava:
It has gone cold here again and we had some snow last night. I was not sure if I would be running today, but when I looked out the paths seemed to be clear. A few flakes were falling and it was just above freezing. My blue top keeps me warm. I wore my gloves, but was in shorts, as usual.

The snow was coming down harder as I headed out, but not really settling. The snow is mostly on grass and cars, so I did not have to run on it. I wore my trail shoes anyway just in case.

I just did a fairly gentle loop of Fairfield as I did not feel like doing intervals. I will be marshalling at parkrun on Saturday, so I am missing out on intensive running this week. I just needed to get out and work on my endurance.

It was fairly quiet out there apart from some dog walkers wondering who the crazy runner was. No squirrels today, just a few birds.

The cold is not too bad when I am running, but my glasses fog up. My hair was quite wet when I got home and I needed to dry off before having breakfast and then a nice warm shower. I do tend to let the initial cold water run off over me, so that is the nearest I get to a cold shower. It soon warms up.

Podcast listening was Late Night Linux, The Drum Show and The Life Scientific. I have so many shows to get through, so maybe I should be running more.

Run free, stay safe and stay well.
