There\u2019s something to be said for a winter run above all others.<\/p>


<\/p>

Sometimes it\u2019s the crystal clear hundred mile views. And the air\u2019s invigorating crispness you only get in winter.<\/p>


<\/p>

Or maybe, when you battle through some sideways hail, it\u2019s knowing that you\u2019re out here while others are sat at home in front of Netflix.<\/p>


<\/p>

Or perhaps it\u2019s after the run. When you <\/em>sit in front of Netflix knowing that you\u2019ve been out and earned this time to sit.<\/p>


<\/p>

Aren\u2019t we all lucky to love running so much?<\/p>


<\/p>

If you\u2019re travelling this Christmas don\u2019t forget to check Skamper for the best runs wherever you are – over 3,500 to choose from!<\/p><\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr>

On Skamper this week\u2026<\/h2><\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr>

It\u2019s been great to see more new runners on Skamper this week.<\/p>


<\/p>

Welcome to Neil Kelly <\/strong>and Gillian Kelly <\/strong>who\u2019ve been racing each other around Granton.<\/p>


<\/p>

And well done Simon Oxley <\/strong>on your Warrendale Knotts Hill Climb – 72.2 is a great result! (Two runs on Skamper too this week – double bonus!)<\/p>


<\/p>

Lee Proctor, Emma Griffiths <\/strong>and Jack Taylor <\/strong>put in some fantastic runs on the INOV8 Winter Virtual Race.<\/p>


<\/p>

Finally, it was great to see Josephine Lightowler <\/strong>running two different courses this week – hope you had a great time!<\/p><\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/center><\/blockquote>\n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n <\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n <\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n <\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n <\/table>\n\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3074,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3072","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-newsletter"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nDiscover Winter\u2019s Best Runs | Skamper<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover how running boosts your immune system, reduces illness risk, and enhances overall health.
