snowshoe running

Finally had a good enough snow fall so I could go snowshoeing. When out
Sunday during the storm(blizzard). The wind was terrible and the snow
drifts were something else.
Yesterday called into work sick. So I could get some good snowshoeing
in. Went out yesterday morning for 1 hour and then went out with my
training partner for what was suppose to be an hour run and turned into
a 2 hour adventure because we made a wrong turn. Our wives were a little
worried when we got back. Hoping to go up to NH this weekend to snowshoe
race.
Anyone else snowshoe in this group?

Yep! When we have snow 🙁 The mountains have some, but lower elevations
have had rain, wind, coolish spell, then warm weather since the last
snow just before Christmas. We're jealous of you guys! The snowshoe mag
forum just picked up a couple more runners today with the new snowfall.

Good luck in your race and be sure to write a race report!

Snowshoe running? OK, this guy has made me realize that maybe joggers
aren't the most pathetic wastes of air on the planet, after all.
