Take it from someone who's lived it, this shit gets old, FAST.
the problem is when you start winter on Halloween and it goes through April.
Preach, Sista. 🙌

It will be 23° with a real feel of 6° when I run tomorrow morning. I am going to cry. Maybe I should do a workout just in case I won't be miserable enough?

Not sure it will get old faster than feels like 100F since February... Time will tell.

Couldn't resist 'eh? It's like muscle memory for you.
With a Sunday race, it'll pretty much be the last practical day for it. 👍
Not memory. It's that 11F feels way better than that shit. At least for now. :-P
With all the wool talk yesterday, I went and spent a fortune this morning on a 1/4 zip top and a running jacket.
The wool top I bought last January was way too light for what I needed, I realize that now (indeed it was rated as light!). The 1/4 zip is rated as heavy and the jacket is wool lined so I'm hoping for better results.
These will go with the two vests and jacket I bought late last week. smh
Which workout will verify "you have no business racing anything in this shape"? 🤔
I hate wool as it makes my nose itch like crazy. I guess there is no material better when it gets to be cold, so I should check it out?
Anything faster than 10k pace most likely...
*cries*
B/c that is all too true.
*cries again*
Sounds wise. Why go through misery on two different days, when you could combine it into one day!
I usually can't wear wool as it just makes me itch. But for some reason the Wazzie Wool is magical and doesn't bug me. But of course, that's not saying that it wouldn't make your nose itch. Anyway, with that said, YES. Check it out. You can always send it back if it makes you itch.

So we got some ice and a teeny tiny bit of snow, schools are closed....... blah. I dragged myself out of bed at 3:40 and headed to the gym, not because I wanted to work out but mainly because I wanted to use the shower.
Now I am trying to see if one of my family members will let me use their washer........ this is going to be a long week.....
