It is soooo frigging cold here! I went out this morning for my first run - it was frosty and icy and I couldn't feel my nose. By the time I got back, my torso was warm enough under three layers, but my legs were freezing and blotchy red. Was quite pretty though in the middle of the countryside... absolutely silent... except for the occasional cows and birdsong.

Eating waaayyy too much - but we knew that would happen ;)

It's absolutely stunning in Sydney this morning - shame I can't run at the moment though ;-)

Glad to hear that you've made it safe and sound. Sounds like a great place to run :-)

Take care - and merry christmas and best wishes to you and your family Hannah for the new year,

On the bright side - you don't have to go far to get ice for any injuries :-)

Oooh, I can't imagine being that cold. I'll have to think about that next time I run here and whinge about the heat.

And you must take some pics of that countryside you are running in!!!

Maybe running at 5am isn't the way to go over there... :-) :-)

Hope you get all the enjoyment and none of the blotchiness for Christmas!

Don't worry all that shivering you do over there will burn all that Chrissy food off.
