...can't run in this!!! First time foiled by the weather. Aah well, there's always tomorrow. Will be forced to keep the stove company and snuggle with Winny today ...xx

[Minimaxi Graduate]

Woah where do you live? I don't mind rain, wind, sunshine... but snow like that would keep me inside too

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to Minimaxi]

LOLS!! I love the face you pulled :D! 'Tis the beautiful North-East of England . Always wild, and very often white this time of year...xx

[Madge50 Graduate]

Woweee! I'd love to have a go at running in that! Not sure I'd get very far.......😂......without ending up on my axis....😂.....

Keeping the stove company sounds like a good idea!

Ooh it's been lovely indoors! But the dogs have loved it outside too. Defo not the weather for running for me...xx

[Shorty7 Graduate]

How beautiful though!

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to Shorty7]

I love where I live...xx

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate]

Just beautiful.. almost worth not running.. lovely photograph

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

ThanQ, I'll be out tomorrow Oldfloss it'll be ok by then...xx

[misswobble Graduate]

Oh flip! Yeah, stay in and plan some running routes and draw up a master plan of how you will conquer all your local running routes. Daydreaming about running is the next best thing to the actual running. Best get the kettle on ☕️

Throw another log on

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to misswobble]

Yup, thought about running on and off all day! Only the second time I've had to change my routine since start of Jan - change is as good as a rest so they say...xx

[JaySeeSkinny Graduate]

Course you can run in that! It's hard work though. But very exhilarating! You know you've had a workout when you get back.

I'd say go for it! But I wouldn't have been able to run at all in January if I hadn't run in snow.

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to JaySeeSkinny]

Nah, far too dangerous! It's that slippy wet snow, and as I run on the roads, could easily get wiped out by passing vehicles...xx

[misswobble Graduate]

I have run in snow a few times. The first time it was falling heavily and I sort of just got caught up in it whilst out. The snow collects under your shoes, baulks you, before falling off with a flump 😀

Grips for your shoes would be needed. Bettaware or the army stores 😀

My grips only fit on my ancient Karrimor tempo, which is why I hang onto em 😀

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to misswobble]

Got some grips somewhere, but I think I'll just stop indoors today. It would be a 'b' if I fell and hurt myself before my (ahem drum roll please).................first parkrun on Saturday...xx

[Madge50 Graduate in reply to ANewMe2022]

Parkrun? Did you say parkrun? Hurrah! Fabulous, you'll have a great time I promise, will look forward to your report (which you must do - it's the rules you know 😉)

Mx

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to Madge50]

Oh I will follow the rules, I shall certainly report in...xx

[RainbowC Graduate]

We'll let you off today (well, most of us will)... But where on earth??? Rain and some sun here!

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to RainbowC]

LOL that JaySeeSkinny ! What a hard taskmaster! I'm up in Teesdale, it's a lovely part of the North-East...xx

[JaySeeSkinny Graduate in reply to ANewMe2022]

It does indeed look very lovely. With a lot of snow. And since we Brits aren't used to snow (unless like me they live not far from the Alps) I'll let you off😈

It would indeed be very foolish to put a Parkrun at risk (but there might be snow for that as well?😎)

[Emmy9 Graduate]

Beautiful picture.... Yes, definitely a curling up by the fire sort of day... You'd never have found the road in the snow! Hope you both enjoyed it xx

[Irish-John Graduate]

No. Nope. No way in hell! Hate the cold....hope it warms up for you soon.
