Beast From The East

The beast from the east is upon us Londoner! This is how the media call the weather that transformed London into a snowed-in Winter Wonderland. For runners with grippy trail shoes, it’s the ideal playground. I went out today and got some running footage with my still newish GoPro Hero6. I love running in the snow. It’s so soft, so quiet, so peaceful. Usually, only the announcement of a snowflake brings the UK to a standstill. No surprise that they canceled the Braintree Marathon for this weekend. Too dangerous. Not sure what to think about it. I looked up marathons for this weekend as a last-minute replacement. There is one in Cyprus! Flights, hotels, and logistics would all be do-able. I am so tempted to do it but somehow could not make a decision yet. And the longer I wait the more likely it is that the flights become unaffordable and the hotels are fully booked. Any thoughts anyone? Shall I do it?
