What to do what to do???

I have an 8 mile run mapped out this morning in Havre de grace. A cute little town by the water. I love running in HdG. Its not very big - about a 3 mile loop so I maped out running up and down pretty much every road to get my 8 miles in. It is my first outside longer run. From here on out I add almost 2 miles to each weekly long run.

Here is my issue - it snowed yesterday. My road looks a mess still so Im good at assuming that some of the roads I plan to run on are an icy mess too... having said that they didnt even make schools late today so maybe the rest of the roads arent that bad.

Where I want to run and my gym are in opposite directions from G's school.

So what to do what to do?

I think I will drop G off at school. Drive to havre de grace and check out the roads. If its ok go for my planned run - what I really want to do. If not, drive all the way back to the gym and get my 8 miles in. I have NO desire to run 8 miles on the treadmill - yuck!
