Hrmmm. Yesterday for around here they had been forecasting 1 to 3 inches of snow. I got around 6 to 8 inches around where I live and it's turned the local terrain into a slushy and icy mess and then it's supposed to get pretty cold starting tomorrow afternoon. Of course, people from Minnesota and Canada are laughing about the conditions of which I'll complain. But since we're still 2 weeks away from the Christmas present I asked for -- some warm wool toe socks, if I'm going to run I may end up having to do some running in the a pair of running shoes I still have. I suppose it'll be interesting to see how it feels to run in them after having run the last 300 miles or so barefoot or in Xeros. Guess I'll focus trying to make sure I continue to land midfoot with a quick cadence and go into aerobic maintenance mode -- enough work to keep the aerobic system cooking, but not worry about getting as many miles as I've been up to the last 4 to 5 weeks.
I did take a short barefoot walk on the snow yesterday. It was cold! I was happy to get back inside and warm my feet by the woodstove after that brief adventure.
