Roads were drying up nicely and I was hopeful of an early run tomorrow morning. But now it's raining again and likely to freeze again.

Sounds like difficult conditions for tomorrow Shades,
No rain here so could go either way tomorrow.

Good luck to everyone expecting an over-night freeze!
I ended up going out later than intended... but did a lovely little torch-lit trot in the forest. Snowy under foot but no problem to run on - it was nice and crunchy (granted I was wearing my Inov8 trail shoes, so graphene soles probably helped). Only did one loop of the moss/mere/lake in the end as I felt a bit tired this evening, but glad to get it done.

Nell - that sounds like a most enjoyable run. I enjoy a run on fresh snow.
However, no snow here, I think it's forecast today, but I expect we'll mostly get rain/sleet.
Lots of gleaming black ice this morning, looks lethal. 😠No run for me.

WP - hope it's not icy with you, take care.
I'm now resigned to writing off a few days running this week as looking forward we should have a decent week next week.

Nice running Nell.
Lots of ice around today,day off which is annoying as I can't see me doing 12m on the treadmill as that was my plan,down to be minus 3 the next 2 nights so won't be any better.

Looks like Friday maybe doable but tomorrow is -6.
I will do strength work and a walk if I can.
No point stressing over it.I will make sure next week is a good week of training.

Terrible sleep here, and only just got up as a result 😴 Not sure when or how but I tweaked my shoulder a bit a couple of days ago and it was keeping me awake last night. It’s not agony at all, but I’m tired (and grumpy, according to OH anyway  ) this morning.
No ice here though (well, there’s a tiny bit in front of my house on the sheltered path, where it often is), but OH has been out with Tigg and said it’s totally fine. I’ll go out for a trot in a bit, hopefully after this strong coffee has perked me up a bit.
