I’m so desperate to get this last run done but the snow is inches high and I can’t get to gym as schools off and off tomorrow again. Driving me nuts x

Errr... run around your house for 30 minutes... no..just joking...some folk will run in snow, as the posts have shown... but the wind is bitterly cold.

Your run will wait and the badge has your name on it:) Plan some new routes... or a bit of running retail therapy ?

Bargains to be had :)

The roundabout across the road is well gritted I wonder how many laps I could manage in 30 mins now there’s a thought

🤣🤣🤣

Run it in your head a little rest won’t hurt and you will be so rested and relaxed. So come graduation day not only will you be on that podium, I'm guessing you’ll smash it too.

Best wishes

Yes your right just a bit stir crazy not being able to get out. I ran in the snow a few weeks back but this “beast from the east” is unreal heavy snow and high winds can hardly walk dog in it no chance of running x

I've been really feeling for all those close to graduation with the current weather :( I'm going to make the assumption from one of your earlier comments that you're in Scotland too? If it's anywhere like where I am, it ain't the snow on the ground that's the problem, it's the horizontal stuff with an epic windchill! :O I've been itching to get out there too, but I ain't that crazy! :D (On the other hand I could probably manage an amazing time if I face the right way, wind was hurtling me down the pavement on my walk from work. LOL)

It’s so frustrating I’m going stir crazy I don’t want to finish on treadmill either but won’t even try to drive to gym too dangerous. Yes I’m in Armadale lol

Yeah do not be driving to the gym, you guys had it baaaaad yesterday. :O Right now I'm wishing I didn't live on the coast. Stupid wind. :(

Hang tight and it'll be all the sweeter for it when you get to do it outside. My W9R3 ended up being in a different year to R1 & R2, so believe me I know how you feel! :D (Just *calendar* year I hasten to add, my Christmas present ended up being a New Year one! :P ).
