Ice Fog & Distance

Distance : 9.5 mi
Time 1:33: 20  

It was a frosty winter morning, the ice fog had rolled in last night and was still very thick. The thermometer on the house read –12 C (10 F) but when we started to run it felt colder.  The benefit of the fog is that the hoar frost was still on the trees for the run making it a very beautiful and tranquil environment for the run.

I ran with three others from the Westhills Running Room store.  We crossed Sarcee trail then ran to the end of 37 street to get on the Glenmore Reservoir Trail. We followed the trail to Crowchild Trail then Looped back to the store.

The trees along the Reservoir Trail were covered in frost and the mist muted the view of the reservoir. IMG_0218

It was a very Zen like easy run that everyone felt good about.
