Although bit of a thaw in Southampton area, heading north to Basingstoke on Xmas day surrounding landscape soon turned white and for the Basingstoke Park at 9am a run on snow and ice covered surface, meant a slower run than normal. The cold temperature meant starting with running anorak on , after the first lap i felt sufficiently warmed up to discard this garment and continue with Vegan runner vest on display. Everyone photographed but just one of me in the vest.
