Well had heavy snow today and not sure it’s a good idea to go for my week 7 run 2. 😫😫

I was the same! ☹️ frustrating! Hope you get to go out for your run soon!

Actually - depending on your confidence and footwear - the snow can be okay to run on. I was surprised I ran in Regent’s Park and the snow was fine and powdery and quite grippy.

Slush and ice a different matter of course. Whatever you choose - be safe it isn’t worth a fall for the sake of delaying a run. But if you feel the conditions underfoot are okay for you, you’ll probably find you enjoy it... I found my normal running pace was slowed down quite a bit, and that actually added to the enjoyment and sense of achievement.

Not what you're looking for?
