Got off work a bit earlier today so I hit the canal road. 3 inches of untracked (by humans) heavy snow. My wife called me as I was getting dressed for the run. She thought I was wearing too much. I'm glad I didn't take her advise, it was pretty cold, especially as it got later. It was a tough 8-1/8 miles, almost felt like running in sand, really cold sand.

I love my Dirty Girl gaiters, they do keep the snow out of my shoes.

Ran a 1/2 marathon distance training run up Perry Canyon and took the trail to White Rock. No human company, but lots of deer.

Deer herd watching my from the ridge. I spooked them earlier, ran past them and down the mountain. Ended up below them. They all watched from the ridge until I was out of sight. 

Great run 13.25 miles, 2250 elevation.
