Today was a cold one (-18ยฐC) and my legs felt like lead. Maybe it was the 2 Disaronno and Coke I drank last night or the double session of meditation I did already today, the second being an online group session that finished just before I went for my run. Or maybe it was the frigid air and my legs just saying, nope there will be no pushing it today! But regardless, I got out, got some frosty eyelashes to show for it and still managed one check on my December Running bingo card - I have now ran over 25 miles this month. I am well on track for my 50 mile goal for the December! Yay!

Nippy, Nippy Run today ๐ฅถ
Now that's what I call a little chilly where you live, I have just looked at the "wind chill temperature" for Saskatoon - 22C but sunny, temperature where I'm is +6C
Great run for you today Sask, you will soon warm up when running, congratulations on running so far 25 miles of your December running bingo card, I am sure you will complete your 50 miles challenge for December ๐ ๐
There is a reindeer head there if you turn it sideways Allie. Outstanding effort in that chill well done on that 25 miles. Brilliant!๐โโ๏ธ๐ช๐โxxx
I will never complain about the cold again!Well done on reaching 25 miles for the month so far!๐
Looks very chilly. Well done despite heavy legs.
Fantastic effort, although happy to run through Scottish winter weather I cant even start to think what running in those temperatures would be like. Hard core indeed. Great progress to your 50mile target, well done. Happy running ๐ค
Well done on your run! That was a cold one brrr! I didnโt realize it got that cold there in December. Youโre a dedicated runner to run outside with that temperature. Congrats on the 25 miles!๐ Great photo.
As a result of your other post and with scepticism I ran to A Very Canadian Christmas playlist on Apple on my treadmill run in Thursday and was happy that I did. ๐ ๐ ๐ผ
Here in Montreal it was an unseasonable 6C for my morning run with some rain before and after the run.
We usually are in full on winter by December but the last few years have been all over the place. We warm up as the week goes on and are back to around freezing by the weekend. There s no getting used to any particular temperature right now.
I liked the Canadian Christmas playlist I listened to, but I tried a different one on Friday that I wasn't a fan of. I'll go back to the Canadian one for my next festive run ๐.
I had a bit of rain on my Wednesday's run last week. I'll take snow over rain this time of year. It makes for some treacherous roads when we get rain because even if we go above zero during the day, we're below freezing overnight. When I'm in winter-mode, I'm happy if winter comes and stays.
Well done on your run and your 25 miles ๐๐๐ I can't imagine a cold that's cold enough to give you frosty eye lashes let alone running in it. I think you deserve another Disaronno ๐ฅ
That's hard-core!
Oh my ๐ฅถ๐ฑ! I can not imagine what that cold temperature feels like, never mind to run it and have icy eyelashes! You sound like you take it all in your stride though with all the right gear to hand, and thatโs a great pace for any weather ๐๐๐ผ. Brilliant photo ๐.
Brrrrrrr that is cold!!!! Well done for getting out there and getting to 4 k. I donโt mind the cold but that is seriously ๐ฅถ cold. Well done ๐๐๐
A bit of a snowflake there on strava too (at a stretch!)
I think I would take the bottle of Disaronno with me on the run.
Oh wow, your dedication is amazing SaskAlliecat, I can't begin to imagine what it must be like to run (or even be outside) in temperatures that make your eyelashes 'freeze', amazing, I am in awe. Excellent mileage already too and yet another tick for the Bingo card, brilliant. โ ๐ ๐คถ๐๐ฆโ๐ฅถ
Well done SaskAlliecat that sounds like a great effort in such cold weather!๐ฑ๐ฅถ
That is some serious commitment . Running in those temperatures. I think I would have to have hot water bottles tied round my waist ๐ฅถ Amazing achievement already with your completion of 25 miles. Good luck with the next 25 ๐๐ป ๐โ๏ธ๐โ๏ธ
