The freezing rain left a layer of ice on top of everything today and footing was a disaster. There were a few points where the sidewalk was so unrunnable I had to take my chances with traffic in the streets. I had a guy struggling to walk yell to me "Good luck, man" to me as I went by. I could hardly blame him since that part was bad enough I resorted to running though a foot of snow rather than the ice rink that was the sidewalk. I chose a route that had a lot of side streets at least. I more or less came to a complete stop at every intersection, but despite a couple very near misses, I managed to complete the run without falling.
