No, I no longer blow bubbles out of doors, but although I no longer feel a sense of novelty, I also no longer feel a sense of pain. Cold weather is just... part of life. :) My minimum running temperature has also dropped from -30F to -40F. This morning I ran 3 miles, wearing hiking socks with my running sneakers, wool shorts under wool pants under running pants under ski pants, a running bra under a synthetic shirt under a wool shirt under another synthetic shirt under a wool vest under a windbreaker, and a neck gaitor, a hat, and two pairs of gloves. The girls wore... nothing but their reflective vests. :)
Great layering! It's the key to staying warm in the Interior. As you well know of course.
ReplyDelete...and here I was grumping about another foot of snow! At least my outdoor thermometer hasn't bottomed out.
ReplyDeleteOkay I must confess to a bit of photographic trickery--I took the photo at a slight downward angle to get it to appear closer to -50F. It was, in actuality, a relatively balmy -48F. :)
ReplyDeleteI also read it is best to layer one when doing outdoor sports.
ReplyDeleteIt was me, I forgot to sign my name.
