A late afternoon 12km trail run at about -11C.
We had a lot more snow, but a few days ago the usual warm "Fön" wind with gusts of more than 100 km/h literally blew it away. At the moment it's just cold, very cold, and it can be quite difficult and even dangerous to run because of the ice that often covers the trails, including wells like the one in the picture.

@Lee6 @running haha thx, I'm trying, but I've already slipped 3 times today and landed on my poor bum 😂 There's finally snow in the forecast for the next few days, which should make it a little less slippery again.
@stefanonegri @Lee6 @running Yes, I've thought of that too. As far as I've heard, the biggest disadvantage of spikes is that running on asphalt and similar surfaces, even if only for a while, becomes quite uncomfortable.
But I still want to try it out – what I will probably do is the following with an old pair of #running shoes:

@riaschissl @Lee6 @running wow that's an interesting hack! I was thinking of the ones you put on an off. Anyway yes, you would have to remove them on any surface that is not snow/ice (or maybe mud). Keep us posted after you try, I'm very curious!
