Charles Barkley Memorial Turrible Run + breaking-in new shoes

Yup, it was.
Turrible form, I might as well walk it. 
Turrible pace, too much black ice.
Turrible running surface conditions. It was like running on an ice track with slush on top.

OTOH, I got to break in my second pair of New Balance 1080 V8s, and only one car ran a stop sign in front of me, so I had that going for me.

... and finally made it to the CityStrides leaderboard

In CityStrides you hit the leaderboard by completing at least 30% in one city.

Small problem: I made it in Herndon before in Reston, and I am only 16% done in Reston. Part of this is that CityStrides is still importing my old runs, but I am starting to get a bit impatient.
