1 km in snow, and with more snow coming from above, one toe turned white, I played it safe. Will try again tomorrow.
Nice pics Sid! Looks like a lovely area for running. I'm envious. Especially today--right now the temp is -15F/-42F windchill.Wife caught me practicing in my gravel box a couple of days ago: "Why are you walking on rocks?"

But now, this is what finished to convince me, it is just 1km away from home, so it is the perfect warm up to go there before some exercise:

That beach scene is quite a contrast to what we're going through here. Schools will be closed again tomorrow, low of -20F/-30C, but at least they'll have Discovery Club. This will be one of the coldest Januaries on record.
It's a little hard to tell in the pic, but if those are weighted machines, be a little bit careful, as they sometimes force somewhat unnatural planes and ranges of motion. You might also consider getting some suspension straps to hook up there or nearby.
Yes, I thought that you might enjoy the wide range of textures, particularly as our Asphalt Technician!Nice pics Sid! Looks like a lovely area for running.

1 hour of intense all-over strength training in the water.
