It's a new year and the London Marathon is just over 3 months away. So, time for some serious training? Well it would be if the weather wasn't cold enough to freeze your bits off.The track (above) is closed and the streets are covered in ice (none of the neighbours seem to have any salt to lay on the pavements). Running on ice seemed a bit silly, so I considered postponing my efforts to later in the week. However on seeing a couple of runners out facing the elements, I felt inspired. With that, and the forecast being more snow all month, I thought a short run might be a good idea to do risk the ice. And I'm glad I did. I've managed a couple of good runs. And the snow is falling again.
