I left the house to warm weather (mid 40s) and partly cloudy skies. I just got a new pair of running shorts and since the weather was so nice I decided to wear them.... mistake. I took the same route as yesterday but planned to go about twice as far. Well when I was approaching the ridge line a big cloud blew in. It started to rain/snow/sleet. I got wet. I got cold. I think it was ideal hypothermia weather. So I revised my plan to, just make it to the heated restroom in City Creek. I picked up the pace to keep warm and made it to the restroom, where I spent about 5 minutes at the hot air hand dryer, drying the front of my shorts and thin gloves. Then it was just a beeline straight home. Oh well better short than frozen.
