I think I need Yak tracks


Saturday's long run consisted of 12 miles of running, sliding, walking, and nearly falling. The ice was pretty intense in some areas which meant we had to run on the roads for much of our run or in more dangerous areas where the shoulder was not big enough for us to run on, we had to brave the ice. It took us a good half hour longer or so to do our run because of the conditions, which leads me to my conclusion that I need yak tracks.

I've read a lot of my teammates' blogs praising them...and I'm sold. They are only a 30 dollar investment, and they sound like they will be worth it especially for those long, icy runs.
