It's freezing!!!

I went for a PAIN-FREE 2 mile run this afternoon. At least I think it was pain-free - it was so cold it was hard to tell. It was -14*C/6*F with a -23*C/-9*F windchill, but I went out there and got 'er done. I wasn't as cold as I thought I would be, but then again, I had on a ridiculous amount of clothing. It was a fantastic run until the last 3 seconds; I took my eyes off the road for a moment to stop my Garmin and in that time, I managed to slip on a patch of ice and I went down hard. It happened right in front of my house, so I hope the neighbours didn't see. Fortunately, I only have a bruised left knee - could be worse, right?

  2. Great to hear the knee is doing better! I hope that you're feeling okay after the fall.
