The sun!
I had been looking forward to my run this morning. My first after recovering from a slight injury, and also, there is a full moon nowadays to light my way. So I stepped outside, and thought, "WHOA! That moon is BRIGHT!" then realized... nope, that was sunlight! The days are getting longer, quickly! As I drove to school, the sun actually came up and turned yellow, instead of remaining orange on the horizon. It is amazing to watch it change...
The most exciting part about today was that it actually snowed on my drive. As for your runs in the cold. You're insane, I ran once in Bend, snowing and 25 and once in Boston, also similar climate, and it sucked. I, too, miss the sun...but only because I am a lazy Californian who does not consider life before sunshine...Damn, I hate getting up at 5.
