Champion 10020 , Minnesota Bronze member | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread I got sleeted on during my run today. It only actually "hurt" for about 5 minutes of the run until I changed direction, so it was about 55 minute of relatively okayish running weather. Yay? |

| Expert 1092 St. Paul, MN | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread FoggyGoggles - 2010-12-31 2:20 PM I'm a relative newbie to MN (from TX) and am suffering my 5th winter. But I had to change my thoughts on this place since we do get long winters here! I went to Start Line and bought some slip on "cleats" for running in the snow and ice. I did a 5 mile and a 7 mile in them and loved it! The extra weight kicks your arse a little, but you gotta love the burn! ALRIGHT!! Another winter runner!! I love running this time of year! See you around at some multisport events this next year??.... |

Member 291 Hugo, MN | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread Foggy Another TX transplant here as well (6 yrs now). This is my first year braving the winter running as well, although I still do the faster stuff on the TM. Came from College Station! Cheers. |

You pretty much made the rest of us look like the rookies we are!  I have three or four lined up for the year starting with the GW Du, so I'm sure I'll see you out there! AB Ha! I love those indoor tris for a little burst of "off season" speed!  See you at GW! Make sure to say hi! I'll probably be there as a relay with my bro-in-law. |

Expert 2189 Dodge County, MN (out in the corn) | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread What? No whining yet? Are you all frozen solid? According to Weatherunderground, it's currently -24 at my house. It's -20 here, which was cold enough to get a 2 hour delay at school. Of course, I was already at the gym, done with my workout, out of the shower and half dressed when the call was made. Anyway, here I am at my desk with 2 hours to get some work done. That's a win. |

| Expert 1092 St. Paul, MN | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread FoggyGoggles - 2011-01-21 6:58 PM OK Steve~ 2 questions: 1) Are the draw strings on your hoodie frozen "up" or were you still running? 2) Did you double up the head gear? Foggy 1. Holy crap. I didn't even notice that! It WAS breezy, but I don't think it was THAT breezy when I made the photo. So yes, I think they were frozen that way. Crazy. 2. Yeah, I doubled up nearly everything. Ski mask with hat with ear band on top. And 4-5 layers over my boy parts too..... |

| Champion 10020 , Minnesota Bronze member | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread It's funny but I was mostly joking when I made that complaint earlier. However, it was totally true! I ran on Mississippi River Blvd and the formerly packed snow was a real chore to run through - really sticky and slidey. Every bit of near bare pavement was a joy. Maybe some real melting will continue to take place. I actually wished for the hard packed stuff!

In it for five miles today, and up for more tomorrow! Foggy |
