A cold run

Hello 2018!  Just a couple of weeks in and I have already started training for the spring and early summer  racing season. My two big races in that time frame are an April Marathon and and June Ultra Marathon. Today's plan called for 6 miles, a short enough distance to manage on the track but I opted to run outside in a temperature that felt like -15°f.  My thought was it was a short enough distance that wouldn't require me to be outside for hours and I could manage it. I did well with my layers and was quite comfortable for most of the run.  My legs did start to feel the cold towards the end of the run. I am confident that I most likely will not run outdoors in weather cold than this and that if it had been windy I would have opted to stay inside. Happy I had the opportunity to enjoy the crisp sunrise this morning!
