Until the last moment we were wondering whether we run bound.

Soon we run a marathon and our legs must “be up and about”, So the most important is the safety and prudence. It seemed, that this time step down Valentine's Day competition at the Winter Gear Hub.

Hard to believe, that competitions are played after the time 19, our participation is much more modest, but since I always run dutifully we put ourselves at the start. This year, the route was routed similar to Run Mikołajowym, which is two kilometers after the park. And there was a problem.
Before we went over to check on road conditions and the surprise was not.
On the path was a thick layer of ice, how to run it just the path, the leaves, Snow and mud slurry. Vetting shafts fared better, we saw no ice.
We returned to the competition office, and I had the impression, that more than a pair of runners Valentine's Day, everyone went with sashes and balloons. Since last year's race was introduced balloon, which is to warn other runners, that runs “associated” for”. This simple and ingenious way great works!
We have taken the risk and decided to run together, if anything, I was holding the ribbon in hand.
We moved and the first kilometers in the park tried to run slowly, carefully and with caution. Omijaliśmy bench, We ran slalom between the trees, sometimes the way nadkładając. We were the second pair but before the second kilometer park by our exploits ahead of us another pair. We fell to third place.

And I thought, that it's OK, how not hold places from last year, nothing will happen. We caught up with second pair, however, and before the halfway point we were already on “place”. After nawrotce shafts przewiało us well and we were waiting again 2 km in the park, but we maintained the second position.
I did not expect, but very glad to 2 in the age category and Valentine went unexpectedly.
