Ha ha it was 28 here... I decided to run this afternoon instead of this morning. No more torture for me for a while :-)

That sounds really cold. Just to make you feel better I was under 2 down comforters at the time all nice and toasty.

Joe.... you are toughening up! 29 and shorts...I'll try to take the "wimp" out of my blogging when speaking or you.

Nice job jumping out there in the cold & getting it done! Things happen when you procrastinate, just ask IJR, who it appears never did his afternoon run! Believe it or not, it was 65 in PA yesterday!

Ha ha JG...you didn't catch me this time procrastinating, I actually ran last night, I just haven't put the results in my blog yet. I bet you can't wait to see the numbers :-) I will tell you that if I had to run in 29 degree weather I think I'd have to quit running, I'm not tough enough for that :-(

IJR - smart move.

dh - believe it or not, no, that does not make me feel better

Rye - the real reason for shorts is because the only pants I have are slacks and jeans.

JG - I do procrastinate pretty well in every other facet of life for some reason. Weird about PA temps.
