Just over a week ago, I was running in 80 degree weather while in Florida. Granted, it was not a great run, but it was nice to not be burdened by a bunch of gear. This morning is a polar opposite - figurative and literally.
I began my run with the mercury dipping down to 9 degrees. I didn't confirm anything else - cold it cold, right?
Wrong.
In the short time I was out, it dropped another 2 degrees and I found out the windchill was minus 9 degrees. No wonder my fingers went numb in the 3 seconds that I exposed them to fumble with my ipod.
The good news is I made it through. Now let's try for some consistency in running - I've just proven weather is not a factor.
