Lurgy dying down, so off I went for a tentative trot. Crispy, crusty snow sparkling in the street lamps - sounded like I was running on thousands of crisps. Very slow 2.6km, but I managed not to cough myself inside out - result!
So happy to be back out running however limited. 😄
Mmmmm......crisps
Great to be back out isnt it!
Nice and slow. Ease yourself back gently.
Oh I do love the sound of crunching snow beneath my feet. So glad you are feeling better and able to get back out running.🙋🏻 Have a fabulous weekend 😊
Crunchy snow.... well done for getting out there, slow doesn't matter getting out did!
Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better Elfe.
Quite a good workout on snow I would think...easy does it...
Take care 😊xx
Oh, that's brave. I'm worried about slipping on snow with running shoes. How did you find it?
The snow that wasn't trampled and compacted was fine, but I had to go very slowly and cautiously the whole time because some bits were more slippery than others. It was ok for a very short, slow run, but not friendly for further/ faster. If I had your treadmill I would have sighed & been on it!! 😄
Well done for getting out especially with that cold! I love cripsy snow but we're not lucky on this side of the Channel: it's rain, rain, rain (a bit of sun on Friday, then more rain). The flu is catching everyone... Snow would be great to depollute the air 
Anyway, I find it easier to run on snow than to walk: il feels less slippery because you land on the forefoot and thus you're less likely to slip whereas when you walk if you use your heels for the impulsion, you slip.
Frosty crisps..
Lovely! Go you!
