Kudos to everyone who participated and volunteered. It was seriously -6 at the start and a balmy +6 at the finish...
But I won my division and got second in the series even though I didn't even do the second race. :)

Slow due to snow and ice on the course. I was one of VERY few people riding a road bike on the slick roads, but I really think it was a ton faster for me.

COOLLLLDDD. I really wanted to be sub 8:30, but I had to stop twice to adjust my shoes. I really thought there was a rock or something in my shoe, but it wass just my frozin toe!! I think my last 2 miles were probably 8:15ish and the first two SLOW. They didn't have the miles marked this time though.
Course:	Sidewalk, rolling then short uphill to finish.
Keeping cool	Good	Drinking	Not enough
