Forums >General Running>More miles than degrees club
As a Floridian it is darn near impossible for me to ever get this, but this morning will probably be the closest i ever come. 20 miles at 30F. Almost died lol.
To bump this page on top of the spam: Ran about 15 in 8-12 degrees (was 8 degrees when I left, it warmed as I was running).

I bet there are lots of us this weekend! -2 degrees, 7.4 miles.

12 at 5F with -17F windchill. Logistically challenging, I struggled to carry water without it freezing.
Break on through
I'm in for the first time this winter... 21 miles at 18 degrees. It's supposed to be colder tomorrow, so I won't have to run as long!

With the mild winter here in Minnesota, I haven't gotten in the club often this winter. I got in today when I ran five miles at -5°F but this may be our last sub zero day this winter. I may not get back in until next November or December.
Finally made it in! We've had a total non-winter here in Detroit, and I didn't think I'd be able to do it this year between the high temps and my current low mileage.
Only ~6 miles for 4 degrees, but hey, still counts!
-11 F and 6 miles. That was the coldest air temp I've ever worked out in. But the sun was out and no wind so it wasn't too bad.

-4 and I dashed to the car. Does that count?

I'm trying really hard not to join your dumb club. I went as far as to do my long run on Saturday before the real cold arrived but waiting for the temperature to warm up so I can go run for an easy 45 min is not really working. It's up to 2°F at 11 am from a low of -7°F.
This may require a short drive to the judgement free zone.
mta: Alright fine. 6.4 miles, 3 degrees. When there wasn't a head wind it was "not bad". Still, I hope that's it for this winter.
Runners run
Guessing most of us northerners east of the Mississippi will make it today. 16 miles @ 10 degrees for me in Chicago.
As predicted, it was colder today... 3 miles at -6 degrees and wind. That was enough for me! After that, I went inside and ran 7 miles on the treadmill.
Yesterday 16.5 miles in -4F at the beginning of my run and -9 by the time I got back, and -22F with the wind chill factor. Today, 11 miles in -15 F, minus 36F windchill.
I am somewhat disappointed that I could not join your club. Definitely the coldest weather I have run in (starting temp 12, ending 16), but I only did 8 miles. It gets warmer after today, so I missed my chance for the year.

Heh. Did it today. Never thought it would happen now that I'm a sloth. 4 degrees. 6 miles. What now, bitches!
Not at it at all.
