We got nice surprise this morning after running all week in 45 sunny degrees and shorts. Started snowing just before we got out and ended up snowing quite heavily, sometimes with wind making it so snow was pelting us in the eyes. Still had a pretty good size group of runners despite the weather. Those SF runners are a diligent bunch.
After a while the snow/slush started piling up on the roads making it very difficult to get great footing and impossible to run at any kind of pace. Ends up taking nearly the effort of a 7 min mile to run 9 min miles. Kim and I both felt pretty spent and happy to get to 13 miles considering the nasty roads. Nice to have Hal stick with most of the way. Hopefully we didn't aggravate any injuries with all the slip-sliding we did.
