The day after my extra-icy run (which I wrote about in my last post) I opened this months copy of Runner's World magazine and saw a feature on running in cold weather. Besides all the obvious suggestions (5 of the 10 tips listed were about dressing appropriately and adding extra layers, well duh!) there was a real gem of an idea, which would have helped me last week. The suggestion was planning early morning or frosty runs along bus routes, as these are usually well gritted and the grit often spills on to the pavement.
This is a very practical point, and may even lead you to discover new routes as buses may wind around town in ways you haven't considered and maps of bus routes are available from the council or online.
