Snow, snow, go away

It's been a tough January! While skiers may be loving the 3 snow storms we've had in the last 9 days, runners are getting tired of it. At least this runner is! This week I lucked out and only had to use the treadmill once, but I don't think it will be the last time I have to sweat it out, running in place this winter. and if I'm not on the treadmill, running outside has become a little more challenging, dodging icy patches and running carefully on uneven piles of snow pushed up on curbs and corners.

Last nights' run was actually quite nice. No wind and temps were maybe around 30. The ground was a little icy, but not too bad for most of the run. It was actually one of those runs that just felt good. Then the snow came. Fingers crossed the roads in Newton were well plowed today. Tomorrow's 12 miler should be interesting.
