There was a Winter Weather Advisory this morning, but since it had been so long since we ran Ares and I decided to go. The weather has been too cold for even a husky this past week.
It wasn't bad when we started off. The temperature was right around freezing, so the precipitation was not sticking too many places. It was a light rain with a little sleet. We almost slipped while crossing the bridge; there it was a slushy surface. So, we carefully walked across (both times -- going out and coming back).
For fairly obvious reasons, we didn't see anyone else out there running or walking. I guess we were the only crazy ones this morning.
All in all it was a decent run. Because of a few slippery spots, we probably did more walking than usual. We both were covered with a light spray of mud when we got back. Ares didn't like getting dried off with a towel, but he tolerated it. He was just so happy to get out and run! We didn't go as far as I wanted, but we ended up with 4.5 miles.
We probably won't run much this week. The family is busy every night. We'll try to keep up with the walks, but many mornings lately it's been just too cold.
Gotta run ...
