went for my first overseas run today and managed to convince my travel buddies to join me! so we are starting again at the beginning.... they are a bit faster than me so I am going to try and increase my speed this time around. we are in new york at the moment and there has just been a blizzard over the last 2 days so there is snow around and it is very very very very cold compared to what we are used to.....but very pretty. it's actually the first time I have been in proper snow :) I have attached a photo to make everyone jealous :)

Stunning picture but yes, certainly a shock to the system for running!

Pretty! A month or two ago I'd have been very jealous. But now I'm quite happy that spring is arriving ;) Looks gorgeous, though, and well done you for going running in that! :)

Beautiful, I'm from uk but have just spent 3 years in Australia and am now in Bangkok - I miss snow! It is very, very hot here day and night and the pavements are busy and more than a little hazardous so I'm running on a treadmill at the least until I'm fit enough to manage the heat! Enjoy that gorgeous snow ❄️ ❄️❄️❄️

Good to run in different places isn't it. In fact I have also run abroad for the first time but sunny Tenerife!
