Winter Is Annoying

in Chit-Chat
Meanwhile, in Chicago.
1. With daylight savings time, it's dark by 5 PM
2. It's COLD
3. These combined, along with the release of Halo 4, always make it incredibly difficult to go work out after work.

GAAHHH

And it's not even that cold yet >.>

That's my rant for the day

    I'm here in Chicago to.Yes, it sucks that it gets dark so early and its cold. But I decided to make to best of it. I run 3 nights out of the week and on Saturday. I have decided not to let the dark or cold interfere with my workouts. And you know what?? Its not bad at all, if you dress right and wear reflective clothing.

    I love winter from inside the house. But outside the house I hate it!

    Winter is AMAZING
    You get to bundle up in your blankets and not be overheating
    It gets dark outside earlier so you have a reason to go to bed early
    You get to wear coats, scarfs, boots and other cute winter attire
    You can have hot cocoa and sit by a warm fire

    And many more reasons why winter doesn't suck :)

    Yep, getting dark about 4:30 here. Last week I decided, that's it, can't take it anymore... I'm working out in the morning. It's much better. You should try it.

    All very good reasons!

    I'm a sucker for winter clothes...don't get me wrong I love my shorts. But I love tall boots and skinnies and big sweaters.

    Also I feel you the fact that its hard to workout after work because if a video game. But I just reward myself with playing Black Ops 2 after my workout!

    Exactly. Oversized sweaters, scarfs, skinnies and some boots is all I've been wearing!

    Glad I'm in Southern California. Cold makes me ache and low light levels depress me. If I get the urge for some winter weather I can just drive an hour to the mountains. Meanwhile, it's sunny and mild at home. :heart:

    Lucky! I love winter clothes too, but we're not having much of a winter this year.....:grumble: It gets hot, then cold for a day or two, and I'm thinking 'yay! I can wear my boots and sweaters', and then it gets hot again for another couple of days. ugh

    Yes, winter is annoying. It messes up my running when it's raining or cold or stormy.

    The good thing for me is that summer is nearly here, hooray!!
    Of course, 40+C days mess up my runs too, but if I get out early it's OK.

    Well, for some crazy reason...I've agreed to a four week, three days a week boot camp on the beach in the very windy wet west coast of Ireland. I'm probably insane but the trainer is so sound and really gets results...it's very hard to get into his classes/bootcamps, they're booked months in advance so when the opportunity came up, I took it.

    I'll either be crying every day or else I'll look like a hottie in four weeks.! Or both!!
