WTF? Posted by Picasa

Alright. When it hit 40 for the first time this off-season, it was energizing and unique. Once it dropped down to 30, we all knew the winter months were here, and we all eagerly awaited those first snow flakes to fall. Trail running in the snow and 20 degree temps epitomizes off-season long runs to me, and so I embraced the days where we saw those conditions as well. But... People... 10 degrees? Sorry. 9.5 degrees and wind? The hairs in my nose froze just walking to the car this morning. Brrrrrr...

On another note, I made a new header for up top o'the blog. Hope you like it.

I'm a wuss...30 degrees sends me inside for the treadmill. But we get a lot of wind here in the flat ole midwest. ;)

Bah! That's 20 degrees warmer than when it becomes uncomfortable to workout outside.

Man, I've been living in this state for entirely too long. :(

Sweet new header! Man, that's cold. We were spoiled here today...51 degrees! Some rain, but still, can't complain about that! I'm sure we'll get some snow in April to make up for it! :)

I like the new header. How about multiple pictures though? The obvious swim/bike/run might be nice, or maybe a podium snap-shot from basically anyone of your 2005 events!

Heh, the nose-hair comment cracked me up! I went outside with my hair still a little damp, and can you believe it froze stiff? Gotta love it. And the new header rocks. Nice job!
