MFP Runners Club 1/15/09

We just got hit with the artic blast today and the real feel temp was 8 this morning. While I am a brave soul, I am not brave enough to run in the 8 degree weather just yet. I opted to stay in bed and be warm. I hope everyone else has a nice run.

    The cold even reached Florida, although we were only 40 this morning, so I still got my six miles in.

    Wow, I couldnt even imagine -15 !! Stay warm guys!

    No running for me, I'm headed to the gym to lift, and then I have a spinning class tonight!

    Yep, -20* here too. Kiddos out of school so not even a chance to run at the Y. Did my ChaLean Extreme Push Circuit #2 and 30 pushups. I think trying to stay warm burns more calories, right?? :laugh:

    Just kidding... the gym was closed this morning for a Combatives competition. So I ran instead, did 4 miles.

    BRR! Bundle up, guys!!! Hopefully the cold snap will pass soon. Sending sunshine your way!

    I had a 60 min session with my trainer and then did 20 min on the stair mill thing that looks like an escalator. I HATE that machine because it's so hard! But it's good for me, I guess.

    -15C! Thats nothing :tongue: Around christmas for a few weeks it was around -30C here. Now thats cold! haha

    no run for me today. We went out Monday and Tuesday, then yesterday went cross country skiing for just over 2hours and burned over 1200cals. A little sore today from that. Tomorrow will be running though!
