Never ran in snow🌨🌨

[Buddy34]

Just taken this . It's my rest day tomorrow so it won't affect me but if it's still there by Wednesday it will be a first. Never ran in snow before🌨

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

It's just started to snow in Cumbernauld Buddy, but so far it's not lying like it is where you are, probably in a hour it will as we don't live too far away.

Nothing through here on the East Coast and I'm pretty close to sea level so might not get to me.

I did enough running in snow at school to last me a lifetime, so I would feel hard done by if I miss it.

Oh it looks pretty!! Pretty slippy too though, which could be a problem..... ❄️ We don’t get enough snow where I live now so I rely on photos from my Scottish in-laws to remind me!

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

The snow flakes were massive and it's still snowing 🌨

[Vegout25]

Take care up there as the forecasters are warning of -10C on Scotland’s west coast tomorrow. I’m in Bristol at the moment & it’s sporadic heavy rain

[Jazzyrunner Graduate10]

Oh my word! 😱 That does not look like good running conditions!

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Jazzyrunner]

That's what my OH said but I'd like to give it a try😊

[Jazzyrunner Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

Report back! 😁

[Hidden]

It looks lovely from inside!

Good luck if you do go for a run. Do you have grippers for your trainers to stop you slipping. The last thing you want is to hurt yourself.

Running on freshly fallen soft virgin snow is glorious! I did it for the first time in Canada recently & it was a wonderful experience. However the snow was was thick, so no risk of icy patches underneath. Enjoy!! No snow here in the NE yet. Xx

[Maz1234]

Enjoy the snow if you decide to have a run in it. Watch you don’t slip .

[Womangolfer Graduate10]

I got up to a light covering of snow today but not a run day. If it’s still here tomorrow I might miss a run as don’t want to break a leg before holidays. Be careful if you go out in the snow ⛄️. I hate running in icy conditions.

[ju-ju- Graduate10]

I LOVE running in snow, its such a treat, enjoy it, take it slowly and go careful if it thaws in the day and theres a frost overnight as it can get a bit slippy...

[lexi6 Graduate10]

Hey Buddy that looks just beautiful, but why would you want to run in it? Have a snuggle, keep warm and think about a run tomorrow 🙂

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to lexi6]

Oh yes this is my rest day anyway. Plenty dog walking instead 🌨🐶

[Elfe5 60minGraduate]

I loved my couple of snow experiences when the conditions were right - new & not compacted. It was very slow & felt slightly like a horse trotting! 😂

[misswobble Graduate10]

I’ve run in the snow It collects under the grooves in your shoes to the point where it can’t hold any more snow so dumps it with a thud Great fun 😁

I ran on the local streets when heavy snow was coming down. By the time I got to The park there was no-one there so had the place to myself with not a mark in the snow. It was magical. I didn’t linger too long though and headed home 🙂🏃‍♀️❄️🌧

No sign of snow here. It’s quite sunny

[Beachcomber66 Graduate10]

I really enjoy running on the first fall of freshly laid snow. It creates a particular light ..really atmospheric. I don’t run on snow which has had chance to freeze underneath....one fractured vertebra is enough for one lifetime (although I was only walking at the time!). Take care.

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Snow here too, think I'll head to lower ground at lunchtime in search of tarmac - new routes through town - yay

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Its beginning to thaw already 😊

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

I know up here on the moor, and our garden in patriot could be here for days. Got a viewing at 11 so at least everything looks pretty, just got to spread grit so they can get out lane at end of visit🥴

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Good luck 🤞🤞🤞

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

Got put for 7k at the nicely gritted campus although I dod think of you each time I ran through untreatsnowy bits❄🏃‍♀️

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Have just came back from a 40 minute walk with the dog through the slush. That was harder on the legs than my running.

Great you found a safe place to run 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

[Getfitok]

Take care 😳

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate]

That is just stunning, I love the snow but we don’t get much and never ran in it

[Hidden]

A beautiful picture Buddy! I hope it clears a little ready for your run 😊

[ForbiddenPlanet Graduate10]

Snow shoes? Those cross country skiers are said to be the fittest elite athletes of them all. Perhaps a new sporting career beckons! 😁

[Oldfloss Administrator 60minGraduate]

Simply beautiful...snow is fine... ice is the no no for me

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Oldfloss]

The snow is almost away but there is lots of deep slippery slush . Hope it keeps raining to get rid of it for me to run tomorrow 🤞🤞

[Run46 Graduate10]

Ooh, looks lovely but I hope it was gone in time for your run! 🤞

Slippyness from ice and snow is the one type of weather that keeps me from running...I walk instead but silently seethe 😆

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Run46]

Yes I ran this morning , you would hardly even know the snow had been 😊

[Run46 Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

That's the kind of snow I like 😉

[Dalmorangie]

Did it clear up by today?

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Dalmorangie]

Yes all gone and got out for a run😊😊

[Dalmorangie in reply to Buddy34]

👍

[RunningMigster]

Wow... just seen this. I'm guessing it's all gone now?

Dont think I'd be happy running in that. Might be time to buy a treadmill 😁
