28F, N 16 mph.  8:44 AP.  Windchill in the teens, but don't worry about us here in south Texas.  I know we have some very extreme cold here, but we'll be ok.  Upper 60s and low 70s by the end of the week.  Thanks in advance for all your concerns about us during this savage winter blast.

Heh heh...I was hoping either you or Matt would see my post.

Might be a TM kind of day huh?

Just get it back to the 60s/70s by next weekend. If I run another race in pansy arm sleeves, Bam is going to send a computer virus to my email.

My only option is to run in the basement. Purdue and the gym are closed. I'm behind enough that even. 20-30 minutes of running in circles in my apartment sounds like a good idea. Plus drills and core, I might get an hour+ Without leaving home.

Jake - just take off the arm warmers and wear your Capri pants; doesn't get any more manly than that!

Jason - just be sure to change directions every 300 laps

They probably shut down everything in TX with that kind of weather today.

I'm crying a river for you.

Looks like I wasn't the only one concerned about your weather!
