What is your worst winter running weather?

I think if it was actual heavy snow I wouldn't be out there!
Sorry guys something went wrong so I've had to edit it - sorry!!
I don't mind the rain much, although I've never run in that horrible driving stuff - but ice? No thanks I'm so scared of falling...
This morning the sun was shining and halfway through the wind and rain started. I came back home looking like a drowned rat but proud of myself nonetheless.
Driving rain is the worst. Snow doesn't drench you. I usually stick to my treadmill in the driving rain.
Ice has got to be the worst at least driving rain won't hurt you like ice can as for snow don't really get much of here not since I started running anyway
I'm definitely scared of slippy ice, but I'd kinda like to try running in heavy snow! But I heard it NEVER snows in Brighton
I hope that's right ☺
Ice is difficult and best avoided. running later in the morning when the sun has had chance to melt the ice is generally what I do, and I get offroad and onto the trail. I wear yak tax type ice grabbers over my running shoes if I run on the road in ice or snow but you can really only go slowly.
I tend to run on small country lanes that never sees a gritting lory. So ice is the worst for me. It keeps me indoors.
