So happy I caught them today! I've seen their transport - big lorry - but always missed the horses working. We got chatting today, the driver and I...the horses took a pause eating grass, and I learnt that they not only clear the snow away in the city park, and spread sand on the pathways, and cut the grass - or in this case just dandelions since the grass is to dry - they also help with cutting longer grass and haul loggs in the woods. Since I was standing rather close to one of the horses I took the chance to feel horse hair once again. I'm allergic now and during this time of year I need to be extra careful whit allergens, but I just couldn't help myself. At least I didn't cuddle him... :D 
Then I went in to the woods for some up-hill training and also jogging and walking in intervals between the lampposts. Excellent interval help! In the beginning I go between two, then jogg between the next two and so on. When I'm more fit and my knee isn't troubling me I'll extend the distance.
