Yes it is insane!




I agree with all of you! Why on earth would anyone in their right mind go running in that??? It is amazing what the right clothing will do for you though.

This last Saturday I headed out with two of my friends and we went for a run in -13F' weather. Honestly, and I can't believe I am going to say this, it wasn't that bad! The last time we went out I noticed everyone had on windbreaker stuff and I thought to myself "that must be the key". So I headed out and got head to toe windbreaker. It totally worked! I wasn't cold ... again, I know it sounds strange, but would I lie?

The next thing was how to take Evan out. I had seen these covers a couple times, so I got one and bundled him up inside. He fell asleep so I am assuming it wasn't so bad inside the stroller. It was like his very own sun room :-)

Thanks Becka and Christie for making me go out!

I love these pictures! You forgot to mention we DID this run on 5 hours of sleep though...plus with your sore knee! You're like a pioneer!

Looking at your pictures reminds me of times I went running with Vlinder in Rosemary. It can be a bit refreshing running in the winter. You don't have a problem overheating.

Wow! That is awesome that you went running in that weather! Way to go! I usually opt for the gym if the temp dips below 50! :)

Brrrrrr! We visited the snow and it was 19 degrees, I thought I was going to freeze. Then we went skiing and I thought I was going to melt away. It's strange how 40 degrees with the sun shining on you can feel like 80.
