Training - snow!

Well it did snow, but there was not much lying when I got up. Decided to run anyway and opted for road shoes to go via West Chevin Road and down through Guiseley and along Queensway. As I left home is started snowing quite heavily and was even settling on the road along Birdcage Walk.

Nice snowy views from the Chevin looking down on Otley.

Snow fell on and off all day but it was clearly getting warmer towards the end of the day but with enough still lying to make visibility good in the dark I decided to run back over the Chevin via Moor Lane, Cross Lane, Surprise View and down York Gate.

Lovely run, not a soul about and light enough with no headtorch. Feet got very wet though as it is very muddy under the snow!

9 miles in all and 512 feet of ascent.
