It snowed here in the NE yesterday---light snow, only dusting the road in about .5 inch of snow. We had a 7 mile group run planned today at Cross Farms/Thompson--the trails are not open yet from the Blizzard 2 weeks ago, so we were going to change the locale to Colts Neck--the roads are hilly but safe for running in the streets.
I told the ladies I would check the roads in the am to see how there were. Got up at 6:30--the road was covered with slush. They had not plowed [they did not need to] but had laid salt down. Great for cars--not so sure how it would be running.
Turns out it was perfect--the slush was just what I needed to keep the run slow and steady--NO TUMMY TROUBLES [Yeah]---Con, N, and L came out. It was Con's and L's longest run ever. L looked like she could have run the full 13.1 without breaking a sweat--she did great.
We were all so thankful to get the miles in.
Here is how the road looked [some parts were cleared from the sun and hopefully the sun will melt all the slush away today]:
