Icy again

The trails were icy again this morning.
Temperature was around plus 2 at 9 a.m. and the ice on the trail seemed to be almost evaporating and leaving a coarser surface.
By noon-hour the increasingly warm temperatures and the slight drizzle had the icy very slippery.
Temperatures are expected to hit plus 9 by Monday with rain which could almost polish the ice and make it very slippery before it all melts away. If it does not all melt and the temperatures drop again, look for a lot more ice next week.
Definitely time to have the screws in the bottom of your shoes!

I've been negligent

Unfortunately I have not been keeping this up of late and appoligize.
After today's loop I can see it is a good idea.
John T. posted this comment from our run on my last post so I've put it up for all to see.
Be careful out there.

Ran a couple of loops today. Lots of ice on the main trail for the 1st km, and up on top of headwaters. There are also a couple of trees down. One big pine that you have to squeeze betwen the branches, just after the out and back to Turnbull. Another is across Martin's road, just north of Dieter's aid station location. It crossed the road on the hill so it is about 3 ft in the air. You need to crawl under it. Fun after 40k.
