It's ONLY the first week in February, but it's safe to say this will be one of the 3 best runs I'll have all year.
It is extremely rare to see snow in AUSTIN, TEXAS. It's even more rare to see a decent amount of snow that covers the ground and sticks around long enough for a run. It's even more rare for me to get the opportunity to go run in it.
Monday it was literally 77 degrees outside in the afternoon. I walked Karma in shorts and Tshirt. Then it got cold, well under freezing for Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday, and on Friday morning, Austin woke up to this. (8am dog walk)
By 10:30am, reports were that most of the VERY ICY roads were now drive-able, so 3 of us met up for a great trail run. One that we all three will remember for a very long time.
Today is Saturday and it's hard to believe I ran IN SNOW yesterday. I went out for a trail run on the exact same trails I ran yesterday, and there was NOT ONE TRACE of any snow having been there. I ran in shorts and short sleeve in close to 50 degrees, and i felt like I just had a really strange snow dream.
Oh, it's 75 degrees right now at 2pm.
