Snow on the Mountains

Today:
Distance: 15.2km
Time: 82'49"
Rate: 5'27" per km
Weather: cold, cloudy, calm, temp 4 degrees, humidity 90%

It had rained all day so any thought of getting out for a run disappeared early in the day. However, driving home from work mid afternoon,(I took the car and also bought two new pairs of running shoes)the rain had eased an an opportunity presented itself. Dressed up like CJ doing her Michelin Woman impersonation, away I went with rain jacket tied around my waist, luckily not needed. Just to keep it safe in case of incident, I went down to Point Hut, along the river track to Pine Is, and back home around the back of Bonython.
The views of the mountains were great from the river with the Brindabellas, Mt Tennent and Mt Rob Roy all covered in snow. The next time we see the sun the sight will be picture perfect.
The run itself was nothing to rave about, but with the sightseeing and moving the kangaroos off the track, it was fairly slow, but a very enjoyable run. Dressed for the conditions instead of shedding clothing, at least I wasn't cold with beanie, gloves, bike pants under shorts, long sleeved top under short sleeved shirt. Gee, I hope winter goes away soon. All that dressed up, no wonder I was slow.
Still, part of the plan and build up.
By the way, why did Daniella save that stupid Michelle. Could not live near her for too long in a small house, no where to run to get away.
