"Curly"s Snowshoe Run" Last year we climbed most of the way up Pine Mtn but with this past week's melt there were probably icy spots in the steep downhill section (which was great fun last year with about a foot of new fluffy snow). So we ran around the bike trails in the mostly flat part across from Lulu Brook parking, starting on the Chipmunk trail. Notable: I finally saw a Teddy bear in a tree on the Teddy bear trail!
Managed to keep ahead of an older fellow going about my speed; I may have beaten another 6 or so.
Considering how sluggish I felt this morning (and how wiped-out I feel now), I'm glad I got it done. Slow and steady. Need to do more running outside.
Around 30-33F, mostly sunny, in Pittsfield State Forest.
Warmed up just a little, running in the snow along the road shoulder (because the road was bare and I was afraid of breaking cleats), but I won't count it because it wasn't enough.
