Want a Good Workout? Run in Snow Over Your Ankles

Most definitely used the YakTrax tonight!

What a run, most everywhere I stepped the snow was over my ankles (unless someone just shoveled or I braved the road). Running down the road in a snow storm is not a very bright option, so treading snow it was.

What a workout, it's as tough as mountain running. I felt as if I was really truckin' along, but as it turns out I was only running mid 8 minute miles.


Over the river and through the woods,
Chris
