Well it certainly has, heavy snow fall overnight in Newcastle with worse predicted for the rest of the week.

So that's my running done for February, I only managed 8 runs which is a bit disappointing but did 60k and upped my best distance from 7k to 14k.

Run happy, run safe, stay warm.

A very impressive log Chris, I hope I can emulate you....well done on your achievements 👏

Enjoy a well earned rest 🤗

Swelling has considerably subsided on my shin since yesterday, so looks like I could be good to go on Sat.

A gentle jog on Thurs will tell a story 😊

😂😂😂 to be fair the pic is my workplace on a business park, out in the sticks where I live the car had 2 or 3 inches on roof and bonnet this morning.

Morning Chris. Great picture ! Brings back memories of when I was young and the bad bad winters up beyond the wall! Where is that picture taken is it Dinnington,Gosforth, on the way to Newcastle.?
