I finally got out this afternoon for a short run. It was cold and the snow had turned to ice so I had to watch my footing and I still almost ate it a couple of times. I went south on the canal trail over to Willard canyon and instead of going another 1/4 mile and turning around like I usually do I headed down the canyon road. It was super slick and I wished I hadn't went that way after I slipped a few times. The run got a little worse when I hit highway 89 and headed back north, tons of traffic and slick and muddy running surface, not to mention a few big dogs. Next time I will just stay on the trail. I got home right at dark, just before 5:20 pm. 35:28 (7:06 average)

Time to get studs put in your running shoes. I am with you, stay on the trail, if possible, during the winter. Hey, read Kim's blog about her run today. You both have a story to tell.

Very cool flash video. I don't know how you guys can run in those shoes.
