6.56 Miles – 9:09/mile – barefoot in the snow

It was about 30 degrees outside so I bundled up. Beanie, under armour tights and shirt, another long sleeve shirt and running pants, 2 pairs of gloves.  It was sunny but cold out.  It was a beautiful and very enjoyable run, most of it on snow packed trails, with a couple miles on the roads to and from the trails.

Ran for exactly 1 hour.  9:09/mile.

Just took it easy, enjoying a fun barefoot run in the snow.  In general everyone at the dog park I was running through either looked at me incredulously or made some comment that I didn’t hear because my ipod was turned way up as I was really enjoying running, and singing along to my favorite songs.  I just smiled and waved.  I was running at sing-able pace, and just really enjoying being out.  I noticed that not ONE of their dogs were wearing shoes, and they all seemed to be having a great time running around too.  Apparently you only need shoes to keep your feet warm if you’re just standing or walking around.
