me too! but I did 12 km, and I had the stroller. Sad that my sense of temperature is so out of whack - it was still -23 with the WC when I headed out, but seemed positively balmy!

I brought my gear to run home from work but I'm exhausted after a crap sleep and a majorly annoying day at work so I don't know how far I will get.

I managed 6.5k, now I'm rewarding myself with beer and pizza at St Augustine's.

Planned a nice long run after work. Tripped on an extension cord at the end of the day and fractured my patella. No running for several months. I guess the hypothermic half is out this year.

Yes, I made a claim today. Knee is gross like a giant blue balloon. I also have an injury of the right wrist. Makes it hard to use crutches but I can weight bear in the Zimmer splint. I feel like a slug already!
