Day 67 - Ice skating

Today I was suppose to go for a group run with around 30+ trail runners. Waking up to freezing rain changed everyones plans. The run and after party was cancelled. I walked out to see what the road and driveway were like and they were a sheet of ice. I got to do some sneaker skating in my drive way for a little and that was a lot of fun. A few cars were driving by so I thought I would give a road run a shot. I have a pair of shoes that I always have sheet metal screws in that are ready for the ice. They really work and it is a cheap way to stick to the ice. I gave them a good work out on some fast down hill road running and I didn't slip one time.

The group run is back on for tomorrow with some nice weather on the way.
