Cold day for a run!! 29 Degrees with a 15 - 20 mph north wind.When I left I had a good tail wind but on the way back it was tough.I kept about 8:00 - 8:15/pace for the first part of the run but I even had to walk a couple of times on the way back trying to keep my face from frost bite. OUCH!!!

The good part was that after 7 miles my legs felt VERY fresh.

Overall about a 9:20/pace.

Seems strange that it is colder down there than here! But it will make you a tough runner mentally later on I think. I have run in temps of 15 degrees below back in Omaha when I lived there. My watch even stopped working once, not fun at all.. Made me appreciate spring though.
