Me, on the WyCo Triangle section of trail...bundled-up to the max.

Six of us ran Sunday in the nine-below-zero weather at WyCo Lake Park. The windchill was minus-20.
Jim and I ran about 12 miles with some extra bushwhacking: following the cougar tracks that were following the deer tracks (for fun).
Kyle and Caleb did some Super Speedy Nerd Mileage and hill repeats.
Beth and (newbie) Brett did a Turtle out-and-back.
It was a beautiful morning.
Happy trails,
Bad Ben

Doug wants to know if the seed ticks have died? :)
ReplyDeleteThey haven't died...they just hide-out over the Winter, because they don't make parkas that small...or they'd probably be out there.
ReplyDeleteYour definition of beautiful and my definition are two different things! :) In all seriousness, I do like to run in the snow too - but I do have to draw the line when it is below 0! I went for a 8mi in OPKS on Sat and the sweat froze on my headphones!
ReplyDeleteAt least the headphones didn't freeze to your ears!
ReplyDeleteI only had a few subzero runs during my short stay in Kansas, but I remember I didn't care for them much.
ReplyDeleteBut after seeing the weather there recently and reading your post, I would be right there freezing my ARSE off running with you.
Have fun!
