Really disappointed our 10k run was postponed due to weather but this morning greeted with snow and biting winds, feels like minus 9!

Very disappointing. It's amazing when you compare this picture with the picture you posted with your colleagues.

I expect the snow will be gone tomorrow, such a shame but a sensible decision not just for the runners but also the supporters who were going to cheer us on the route 🙁

Oh that is a shame, but running in those conditions would have been hard. Biting winds brrrrrrrr! x

The coast path on top of the cliffs in these conditions would be too much of a challenge for our group of newbie runners but we will do it 😁

So many races have been cancelled here but I'm not surprised. We have about 4 inches and it's still snowing heavily.

Fear not, the training you've done is never wasted 🙂

We've had a couple of inches the wind is so cold. We are rescheduling so more training 😉

That's such a shame but safety must come first. Wishing you better weather for the new date 😁

Oh goodness, that’s impressive! I was going to text my daughter to ask if your snow is deeper than ours, I know the answer now! But I’ll send a friendly text anyway! 😀

Looks like it may be rearranged in about 4 weeks so hopefully no snow 😁
