  6. Monday 22 km ✅ Figured it was worth a shot at a longer run to see. Generally a good run, lots of folks out getting steps in, with just enough cold rain to be annoying. I think I probably need to take it frustratingly easier for a bit longer.

  7. Monday 22 km ✅ Wide mix of conditions from cleared paths, slushy paths, heavy snow paths, and variations in-between. Pretty nice morning for it too.

  8. Friday 24 km ✅ Everything looks beautiful when it's covered in snow. I really feel runs like this in my hips - sloshing through all the snow is *tough*.

  9. Friday 22 km ✅ Hit 200km for January on today's slog of a run. Huge dump of snow meant everything was a struggle, even if I love running in snow. At least the -10°C windchill meant I was back on #TeamShorts, even though I also ended up on #TeamBeardIcicle. 😜

  10. Wednesday 22 km ✅ Me this morning: Hmm. -23°C windchill. I should try to avoid wind.
    Me, once outside: picks route with eighteen bridge crossings.

    Good run, ankle's still not happy, and the irony of icing my ankle after being out in the cold is not lost on me.

  11. Monday 22 km ✅ Windchill of -9°C meant I was back on #TeamShorts, which made me happy. Good run, and I got to poke around the Chaudieres Falls area now that construction work changed a bit so I had a clearer view of where I could go. I did something to my left ankle around KM 16 or so, probably crossing the uneven snow/ice boundary. I'll nurse it and see how it goes. Mondays!

  12. Friday 22 km ✅ Real slog of a run, powdery snow on top of ice in many places, plus seriously distracted by the LRT stuff between Lees and Hurdman (lots of start/stop/walk/looking). Otherwise, the temperature (-6°C) was great and I enjoyed myself (I do seem to enjoy the slogs, truth be told).

  13. Monday 24 km ✅ Strava crashed 3km in, fortunately my watch kept track. I decided to tack on a few extra KMs to make sure I hit the half-marathon distance. Tough run, probably due to all the junk I ate yesterday. Fortunately, the amount of available junk is rapidly dwindling. My Apple Watch (S5) gave me an award for the half. Curious to find out if that's a one-off or an each-time thing. 😛

  14. Monday 23 km ✅ Went for my first distance run with someone else; Jane (who I met at the Summer Institute of Film & Television nearly twenty years ago), joined me for 10km of today's run. We were treated to lots of dogs, a large bird (she says possibly a Merlin or a Copper's Hawk), and lovely large fluffy snow. Fun time and great to catch up with an old friend.

  15. Thursday 22 km ✅ Figured I'd sneak in a long run to avoid long-running in the mess that should be arriving Friday. Good run, lots to see all over the place, and hit my 300 km in December.

    The experience in the shower afterwards was funny when the ice in my beard melted out and landed on me.

  16. Friday 22 km ✅
    Blowing, heavy, wet snow? ✅
    Wind gusts to 50km/hr? ✅
    Largely uncleared paths? ✅
    Shoes caked in snow with wet socks? ✅
    Would I do it again? ✅
    It was a fun challenge and my heart didn't explode from the effort!

  17. Monday 22 km ✅ Great way to start the week. Running in snow is a lot like running on sand that can also be slippery. Wind chill started off around -9°C, then fell to -13°C.

  18. Friday 24 km ✅ Even though I had to put on pants (-12°C windchill), it was a wonderful day for a run, if a bit windy. As usual, lots to see all over our lovely city.

  19. Friday 23 km ✅ Tough run; didn’t sleep well and was sore, but I set my will in motion. Beautiful morning for an Ottawa run.

  20. Wednesday 22 km ✅ Cold rain started about forty minutes in. Was only planning on 17 today, and… accidentally ran it up to a half marathon, remembered to splash in a few puddles for fun.

    Frequently, when weather is going to be miserable, I seem to find myself committing to longer runs. Is it just me that does that?

    November total: 455km run.

  21. Monday 23 km ✅ Started off with -15°C windchill, spotted a snow person chilling on a park bench, Dow’s lake and the canal have started to freeze over, generally nice day to be out running.

  22. Monday 22 km ✅ Starting the week off with a -9°C windchill half-marathon is pretty much perfect.
