Roommates woke me up to tell me campus was closed today because of road conditions! Best news ever. Coach later texted us to say that due to the snow and closure of campus, for one of the first times ever practice has been canceled. He then said if we try to run today be careful because the roads are packed but remember practice is canceled and you should take the day off. I originally planned on not running because the snow was coming down, but then it cleared up and I got sick of doing homework so I just decided to run. Now I see why coach gave us permission not to run. The roads are terrible. Found a road that wasn't nearly as bad as the rest, but coming back up it was going against the wind and I was still slipping a ton. What was probably 8:00 effort was actually 8:38 average.
