Snow today. Interesting drive: at lower elevations it was rain, but as I climbed over some modest hills, it changed to snow and the roads were covered with slush. And at the crest of two of them was a car smashed up surrounded by fire trucks and ambulance.
On the course rainy, just above freezing. Got chilled and arms were really frozen by the time I finished.
Object was to work on navigation and not to run fast. Good plan, as the running was slow in sopping wet o-clothes. Did a lot of nav using contours, but found the lines hard to read as they were fine and light grey on much of the map.
