all you people posting about 40+ temps and sunshine can JUST SHUT THE HELL RIGHT UP.
also, remember this complaining come summer. REMEMBER.
But ebeth, it is freezing ass cold here. H and I were just in down jackets out on our balcony because it got down to 68*. I thought I might lose a toe if I sat out there in flip flops too long. (Sadly, I'm dead serious.)

Really freaking cold and this area does not know how to address snow removal, so there is no outdoor place to safely run. My gym is automatically on a 2hr delay if the schools are closed...schools have been closed all week (and I don't think they should be!), so I haven't even been getting to the gym. It's been a mix of rest days and using my elliptical. Training for my Spring Half was definitely not this hard last year. I'm hoping the roads magically get better for my 10mi on Sunday...I know it's a pipe dream b/c we're getting 2-4 more inches tomorrow :*(
I'll be running on the treadmill for at least the next 10 days. Half-marathon training on a treadmill blows.
This. Riding my spin bike today because I can't take another treadmill run. I keep modifying my training because I have time to do so. Pretty soon I won't have time! Also MD gets hot and humid so I can complain this summer too
NY gets hot and humid, too. We can complain together!

It was 22 with a wind chill of something ridiculous in the single digits this morning when my running group met. I stayed in bed and ran this afternoon when it was 39, feels like 32. It felt spectacular, though very windy.
