Very little wind.
Multipurpose paths cleared to about 2 inches ..with many foot prints already on..
Much easier running surface that down on trails in the Cuyahoga Valley Recreational Area.
One Man. two shoes... various clothing articles including the new boffy Buckeye Winter Trail Blue Jacket.

Nothing like a quiet run on the trails. Even if it is filled with snow
Sounds peaceful. :-)
Awesome writing, JT! Very very cool way to document a run in the snow. (I also stop to pet people's dogs when I'm running :P)
Awesome...it sounds like your running had a rhythm.
Sometimes, you just have to stop and smell the roses, or pet a dog, either way! Sounds like a nice, peaceful time!
Sounds wonderful (except for the 10 deg part :-)
Nothing like a peaceful run!
I will tolerate the cold for that kind of solitude.
LOL. Good run report. And isn't the Winter BT Jacket cool? Can't wait for an oppurtunity to break it out!
Winter running is so nice sometimes. I love how you wrote about it. I had a run very similar to yours last Saturday by myself. I found myself at the top of a hill looking at a clear blue sky.
HAPPY RUNNING!
Sounds like you really had a great run on he trails!
hey, nice run! paradise IS where you are, isn't it? sounds beauftiful! happy february!
I guess you get used to the cold? Nice run. Makes me wish I brought my running stuff to work today.
Sounds like a great relaxing run. I'd love to have a few of those!
almost made me want to run in the snow...what a wonderful day...
Sounds like a noisey 10 miler but beautiful. Nice run.
