I remember my first Olympic distance swim. I was at about the halfway point thinking 'this is taking forever.' I started singing 'Swing Low Sweet Chariot' in my head: Swing Low Sweet Chariot Coming for to carry me home... Not the best song to sing if you're out in the middle of a lake...  |

Pro 4541 A farming town in MN | Subject: RE: Wind Chill Warriors (Team 3) - January Challenge Missed my swim this morning. I typically stop by the pool on my way to work. Traffic was backed up and not moving. I pulled into a Country Inn & Suites and camped out in their lobby and fired up the laptop. Worked until the traffic map said it was clear. Otherwise it would have been a 2 hour commute... |

Champion 14677 Bronze member | Subject: RE: Wind Chill Warriors (Team 3) - January Challenge Got a run in at lunch before the sleet starts. Don't know if that is going to happen but I do know I would not be running in it. Today was supposed to be a ride but I wanted to get outdoors in case tomorrow is as bad as they say it will be. I can ride the trainer in any weather. |

Elite 3913 far northern CA | Subject: RE: Wind Chill Warriors (Team 3) - January Challenge I ran 3 miles while pushing baby in the stroller. I discovered a flattish tire on it before I headed out but decided to gut my way through the run. He's not heavy enough yet to make a flat tire cause steering problems. It was only slightly more difficult to push. |

Veteran 243 Denver | Subject: RE: Wind Chill Warriors (Team 3) - January Challenge *sigh* my crap mood from Tuesday evening never really left... well, until I played hookey from work and stayed home with my boys back at it tomorrow.I did manage to get on my trainer. I did a very easy spin. My kankle has been pretty stiff all week. I think tomorrow is going to be a lift/pilates day. I don't see myself waking at oh-dark-thirty to hit the pool. Tomorrow's FRIDAY! |

Elite 3447 West Allis, WI | Subject: RE: Wind Chill Warriors (Team 3) - January Challenge Yep it's Friday!! And I ran yesterday, and rode the trainer! I'm heading out of town today for a girls night. Should be a blast but that means no workouts for me today....which is fine as I think my body needs a break from workouts! |
