If you already know how to do it, I say Go for it.
There is a big BUT:
If you have done a lot of running in snow or skiing - your aerobic capacity may be way better than you think, and possibly much better than before the winter.
So, if you ski a lot this winter (plus other kinds of alternative training) you need to be careful when you start running again in Spring. Your legs will not be used to running on hard surfaces and you should take it very easily and gradually build up.
Untrained legs + great(er) aerobic capacity = means that you have to stop running long before you tire or get out of breath - else you risk injury on your very first long or fast run.
