A very pleasant, if cold, 6 mile trot around the local area today, apart from the bit where I slipped on some ice, nearly fell into the path of oncoming traffic and had to hang on to a wall to save myself from potential death, and the bit when I rounded the corner onto the bottom of our road, slipped again and had to grab onto a parked white van (luckily empty of white van men). Managed to avoid death but not embarrassment. Yes, there is still ice around. Most of the pavements are OK but then you get bits which are just terrible. The big piles of ice aren't too bad, at least you can see them and take evasive action, but the patches of black ice are lethal.
Apart from that, an enjoyable, undulating run incorporating a couple of minor hills and some nice downhill stretches.

Wow you are still suffering with the ice, it is positively tropical, well not quite, here.
ReplyDeleteGreat running - even with the ice!
ReplyDeleteWell done on your run, especially with all that ice around. :-)
ReplyDeleteGood run and well done for managing not to fall flat on your bum! :-)
ReplyDeletegood running! I feel for you having all that ice... at a heady high of 6 degrees here, we're in the middle of an Indian Summer! :-)
ReplyDeleteWell done for not letting the ice stop you.
