It can't get crappy fast enough.  I seen englam running last Saturday and figured my Sunday 18miler would rack me major points like he did.  NO DICE! 3 hours wasted due to no temp points, it was 38 degrees ( . Got a few yesterday but trailing from lack of timing and motivation at the right time of day.  LMAO, its all good.

Finally got some good points this morning with a 10 mile run, 23F, wind and light snow.

Looks like Saturdays long run could be in the 20's too.

Very much looking for a way to stay motivated.  This looks like a great program for me!  I am getting onto that spreadsheet now, then I just wait for some cold weather...

Sucks they cancelled your race.

Enjoy the 40 miles, maybe you will have some snow to run in.

Finally got some points on the board! Weather dipped down unexpectedly from 11c yesterday to 2c this morning! Doubt it will last though.

The temperature was in the 60s for my Turkey Trot yesterday, so no points. But my mom and I bundled up this afternoon and walked for an hour in 31 degrees. I forget. Do we get points for doing any activity outside in the cold or just run, bike, swim?

Realized this morning as I was entering my ride that the cold weather may be just what I need, my bike and run times are much better when I am freezing and there is the promise of a warm shower at the finish.

I think someone accidentally posted 48 points under my name this morning, which I had to replace with my sad little 25 points from this morning's run. I mean thanks for the help -- I certainly need it -- but it's been one long warm fall here. Not that I'm complaining!

I am itching to get on the board...my wife will not be happy with me for wishing for temperatures in the 20's-30's.  It's kind of sick, but I was excited to see a little rain and wind this morning.  Only to find that the temp was in the upper 40's.  cold is coming soon enough...

My understanding is any outdoor activity outside gets you points, unless you've set up your treadmill in the yard. I think we've concluded that that doesn't count.

No points for me for a while, as we've been getting warm weather in Colorado whenever I muster the energy to exercise. And now I'm in much warmer climes on vacation, so nada here. For the record, I will definitely take tropical weather over points any day, but hopefully December will be kinder to me in the points-department when I get back.

There's gotta be some use out of the cold. If I can't walk around in flip-flops, it better be chilly enough to score some points!

Awesome! We walked another two miles this afternoon with the temp at 33. It was miserable, far worse than running. But she's 71, so . . .

I'm totally in (if a bit late to the game).. I've added my name and my first set of points to the board. Here's hoping this cold snap holds!

Woke up this morning and looked out the window to see, what I thought, was going to be some good points for my long run. Recently the temperatures around here had finally dipped low enough to score points and it was foggy and raining lightly as well!

Step outside and think it doesn't feel all that cold. That's because it wasn't The weather has decided to warm up a bit again. Looks like at least another week of no points for me.
