Running in the Snow

Today was fun. I ran 3 miles around Hastings in the snow. I was able to run in the streets most of the time but was forced on the sidewalks along Green Street. For those of you who live on Green Street I have a request… Please come closer…. Closer… SHOVEL YOUR FRICKEN WALKS! Actually it wasn’t too bad. Plus it was very pretty.

Part of my route took me past the high school where I saw some HS kid attempting to do doe nuts in reverse because he/she had a front wheel drive. It was kind of funny because I’ve done the exact same thing in the exact same parking lot, albeit many years/decades ago.

I wasn’t really watching my Garmin all that closely today and was wondering why I was feeling so winded towards the end of the run. I was chalking it up to the fact that I ran 9 miles yesterday until I looked at my watch and figured out I was running sub 8 minute miles in the snow. So evidently I’m not all that bright… but at least I’m getting faster!
