First Flakes

Busy day at work so missed my lunchtime run due to meetings. Pay back by cutting out early for a loop around town. Managed about 5.5 mi. in 46:30 and just as I started out, so did the first snowflakes of the year! Not enough to stick or make tracks yet so can't call it our 1st snow. The run went well, just a few knee aches which went away and was OK in shorts but glad I had my gloves and headband.

My favorite run has always been in or just after the 1st snowfall when everything is quiet, except maybe a foghorn and you can float along and enjoy the extra cushioning (even better when done on the empty golf course)! Maybe we'll get some more tonite! Am I crazy or what? Remember, I'm a Canadian and I've taken the 'test' and passed! Later...

I got Brazil. I don't think so! As an aside, I'm moving to a sprawlville townhouse on a golfcourse. I'm looking forward to trying tee-to-green workouts and barefoot running.

I love running in the snow!

...and I thought I was the only one on this earth that looked at golf courses and thought how nice it would be to run on them!

I got Canada, too. Our snow has come and gone. Calgary is weird that way.

We're back to t-shirt weather today - go figure.
