6th January - The Big Freeze...


Been back an hour and still haven't got warm...blanket wrapped round my legs as I type. James has just informed me I look like a frozen turkey. Thanks.

The Big Freeze is here.

The car said it was minus three degrees but I'd said a definite 'yes' to Julie about running tonight on Monday. I can't let her down. I can't let myself down. So, donning my studs (apparently very handy for running in snow) I head down to Idle for 7pm.

Despite the cold, it's a lovely night...white and crisp.

We run from Idle to Thackley and on to Saltaire down to the roundabout (not a car in sight) and back...only not quite back because that final hill is just too much and Julie's husband's car gets up it much easier than we could.

A pleasing 7.5 miles in cross country-esq conditions.
