A nice post-race morning #dailyrun - the #ottawaraceweekend marathon leaders went by (so impressive for the end of the race!) #ottawa #rideaucanal #run #running #ottrun #runottawa

Did the 5k and the 10k in today's 28 degree weather. Feeling good about my pacing and my end times, too!

Friday 10 km ✅ Quite possibly the most challenging run of the year. Started off by shovelling wet snow for over half an hour, then started off into the 50 km/hr winds with gusts to 75, w/ heavy, wet snow, and then it started raining. Exhausted.
On the positive side, with this run, I hit my target for the year: 5,000 KMs!

Wednesday 10 km ✅ A really tough run today as I'm recovering from a spot of food poisoning yesterday. Welcomed the shortest day of the year (and winter solstice) by getting my steps in.

Tuesday 10 km ✅ Only one image today, because it's dramatic; and what I love about running these routes - they reward people who *look around and pay attention*. The photo's of imprint in the snow from a predatory bird trying to catch its next meal, which may have gotten away.
Windchill of -15°C this morning, so had to wear pants. 😕

Monday 12 km ✅ The number of snow people continues to rise along the route. I'm not sure if/when they'll launch an invasion, but with a storm looming for the weekend, we should all prepare. So far, I've been able to outrun them all. Having no legs really seems to cut down on their ability to pursue me. 😛

Friday 22 km ✅
Blowing, heavy, wet snow? ✅
Wind gusts to 50km/hr? ✅
Largely uncleared paths? ✅
Shoes caked in snow with wet socks? ✅
Would I do it again? ✅
It was a fun challenge and my heart didn't explode from the effort!

Wednesday 16 km ✅ The “I don’t wanna” was strong this morning, though after having a stern word with it, I went out anyway. -16°C w/ windchill - delayed by a seven hour Rogers internet outage (originally typed outrage, which is applicable).

Monday 22 km ✅ Great way to start the week. Running in snow is a lot like running on sand that can also be slippery. Wind chill started off around -9°C, then fell to -13°C.

Friday 24 km ✅ Even though I had to put on pants (-12°C windchill), it was a wonderful day for a run, if a bit windy. As usual, lots to see all over our lovely city.

Wednesday 18 km ✅ Foggy and misty run. Pretty good route, except for the MacDonald Cartier bridge crossing, which is really noisy, as is the section along Wellington Street to Bank. The path at the base of Parliament hill is closed for construction. :-/
