Nah, I love running in the snow. Put sheet metal screws in an old pair of running shoes and it's like having studded snow tires.

I actually have snowtreads for my runners that stretch on over the shoe and provide great traction on packed snow and ice. But they feel like shit running on bare asphalt so I only use them if I know the entire run will be on that kind of surface, which is tough cause normally there's a mix of snow and no snow on the sidewalks and roadways depending on how snow removal has gone

Yeah, they're great for trail running but lousy for roads. I either use screw shoes or studded running shoes (Icebugs). The studs compress up into the soles like on snow tires.
