Notes

Snow on Friday night and all of Saturday, but it was slow and maybe half a foot. I wasn't planning on taking yesterday off, but I didn't have a plan and then the day got away from me. I had 1 more opportunity to run at 7 pm but a late lunch and a beer discouraged me. I'm a bit disappointed that I gave up on the first day of non-prime conditions but on the other hand... I was going to take a day off one of these days anyway.

I had heard that the trails were good, and it was true, way better than sidewalks. I'm not one who sees the usefulness of owning a fat bike, but they sure do help trail conditions. For most of the miles, it really wasn't that much slower than on trails normally. Though there was 1 mile that I went up and over a non-plowed bridge, that took some work.

Only 12 miles, but good enough as it took just as long as 13 last week. There was also the matter of chaffing that made 1 extra mile considerably not worth it.
