Whiteout

My long run on Sunday was abbreviated by the mid-day conditions (shoulda coulda run with Andrew but didn't). After 5 miles of this stuff it was time for the treadmill. Final total of 12 miles was all I could manage as I needed to save my strength for shoveling.

Have a nice week!

I can sympathise with you now having to put up with the extreme cold after experiencing -15 in Canada myself last April. Stay warm.

I'm glad I don't live in Canada - too darn cold up there!

Oh, you may want to bring a snow shovel with you to running camp this weekend.

obviously a 'dire emergency' day!! Well done for making the effort. I wonder what the guy in the snow plough was thinking!! I'm sure that the 5miles of fresh air made up for the monotony of the next 7 on the treadmill!! Well done.

I have recently begun to run outdoors for the first half of my run and then run on a treadmill for the second half. I find that I run much further than I would have if I only did one of the two. I have been reading your blog daily and really enjoy hearing your run-related stories. I have also started a running blog and hope you'll check it out:

Keep up the good runs!
