Met a girl and we did it together when we both wanted to bail at 2! Holy fuck. This was my hardest race EVER!

You're so awesome!! Congrats! I can't even imagine that. How was the chocolate after party??

Also, I'm glad to hear that you think the cold is tough. Now, the 29 with a fees like in the teens that I ran in a few weeks ago is nothing compared to what you did today, but it was tough! I felt so defeated, but really cold temps for warm weather runners, can almost have the same effect as warmer temps for cold weather runners, I think. Just give me 50* for every run, please! LOL

Yes this cold was so much harder for me than anything. Oh god the wind too! I'll post pics!
The after party was good and hot chocolate and fondue were great but we hauled ass outta there. I needed to get outta my three layers. I wore everything the entire time. The wind was brutal!
Great race series tho. I'd def do it again in a warmer city! Lol
