Beautiful Christmas Run!

Just had a great run through the big sandhill trails with Tess, conditions were fantastic.
Beautiful sunshine kept me warm, I even took my gloves off and with no wind it felt great to be alive.
The snow capped views were stunning!
The snow trails are now smooth and compact and not to bad to run on using my Nike Red Rocks for grip.
We finished with 2 hours 4 mins
Hope you had as much fun as we did today.
Happy festive spirit all round :]
