kstuart Dec 2023 5:30am, 5 Dec 2023 4,903 posts	0 kstuart As i had been busy at work last week and was tired didn't do anything on Friday plus Saturday was snowier than expected well slushier by the time i woke up plus i spent most of the day doing stuff with mother it had iced up somewhat by the time i got home. Sunday was still crunchy in places too well into the afternoon when i went for a walk to see what it was like. Naturally it's fine now as it's rained most of the night and i suspect if i went to look would struggle to find any dodgy spots around here.

Metro_Nome Dec 2023 2:19pm, 5 Dec 2023 7,268 posts	0 Metro_Nome I’ve got training later but not sure if it will be on (some places here are super icy, other places fine) so just did a very gentle run just in case!
Nord SledRunner Dec 2023 2:54pm, 5 Dec 2023 3,763 posts	0 Nord SledRunner I need to get something in my race calendar sooner tham April as Garmin has me on tickover. Not that I object to the absence of long runs in -7.
JCB Dec 2023 3:24pm, 5 Dec 2023 5,324 posts	0 JCB Reminds me of some adventure where two people were competing (serendipitously at the same time), pulling a sled in Antarctica, to be the first to 'cross' the continent unassisted.

Metro_Nome Dec 2023 3:03pm, 6 Dec 2023 7,270 posts	0 Metro_Nome Still in. Training ended up being on last night so today was tough after yesterday’s double run, and I find my breathing was really suffering in the cold. But 6 days down!
