Now every time a move I get a shooting pain in my neck, so I spent the rest of the day on the couch. The worst part is, I didn't get my long ski in today. Sucks man. Rest well, it will heal quicker right?Guess I don't know how to rest. Went out for a 45 minute run this morning. As long as I don't turn my head, the neck doesn't hurt. After all, it was -3F and I couldn't pass it up. Be careful out there. You don't want the damage to be permanent. |

Elite 3460 Slackerville, USA | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2010-2011 We finally had a storm come through and clean out the air. It'll be good to head outside for a run and its cold enough for at least a couple of points. |

Maybe will have to see if I can find them cheaper. |

Lasted about 5 seconds as she wouldn't put the bootied paw on the ground. Drama queen, that dog.  |

| Champion 10019 , Minnesota Bronze member | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2010-2011 I saw a guy this winter running with a dog with booties. The dog was a medium size hairy thing, but with little tiny legs and tiny booties on each foot. S/he seemed pretty happy with the arrangement. I'd think one could fashion a booty from some fabric and velcro, twine, ziptie? Here: instructions Edited by BikerGrrrl 2011-01-12 9:21 AM |

| Elite 3460 Slackerville, USA | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2010-2011 We're supposed to get some snow over the next few days. I hope it leaves a bunch to make it worth the warmer temps. They're saying we're going to be leaving point earning temps until after the storm.  |

| Champion 5312 Calgary | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2010-2011 So I forgot to tell you but last week I am out running and it is like 1C - 4C can't remember, we had some mild weather there. Anyways, buddy runs by me, barefooted. I see him out during the summer barefoot but dude, there is still snow on the ground, although he wasn't running on it. I think my feet would turn to bricks of ice.... Maybe have to try it someday, would barefoot running be worth a multiplier of its own? |

| 354 | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2010-2011 It's 8 degrees out, but the sun is shining. Little bit of a wind, too. More snow coming on Thursday! My son even said he wants to go walking if I will do it with him. Somewhere (I think it was runner's world) I read that our sphere of influence is about 1,000 people! Nichi I think my foot has been fixed by my chiropractor! NO PAIN! And I thought it was just overuse or something. |

Extreme Veteran 532 Northampton, UK | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2010-2011 The temperature in England may not realise what season we are in (12°C), but at least the wind (23mph) and rain have the right idea! Most points I racked up in quite a while |
