Snowy 5 Miler

I really love this time of year. I like cold weather a lot and love how the snow can blanket an "ordinary" trail and make it "extraordinary." I got in a little over 5 miles almost all on the Greenway and had the best time. It was covered in snow and really pretty. Wore my Brooks ASR's, not a minimalist shoe, but an outstanding all weather shoe.

Quick tangent about shoes... Due to previous injuries, I am constantly working on landing mid-foot/forefoot and have spent some time running barefoot. My main shoe right now is the Brooks Green Silence, which for me is a great minimalist shoe, not to mention a very environmentally friendly running shoe.

After working on my form for awhile now, I can wear just about any shoe as long as it is flexible in the forefoot. Back to the run....Pace was not a concern as I am running a 10k this Saturday and just wanted to get out and keep the legs fresh. It was a great run and nice to be in the elements.
