Stipulations..

So I went running last week.. Outside. (I live in the land of cold winters, by the way.) But, I found a group of people who are year round runners and decided to take up with them on a run.

It was a nice, enjoyable run. Cold, but not windy. No ice. Not too much snow on the ground. About as nice as it can be this time of year.

If you're not a runner, let me preface this by saying that runners are generally friendly folks. All cheery and whatnot. So after the run everyone was congratulatory towards me, high fives, and post-run introductions.. Then the pressing question, "Will we see you again?".

So I had to politely inform them I have some stipulations for winter running:

  • I don't do wind.
  • I don't do ice.
  • I don't do snow.
  • I don't do slush.

Their response: "We probably won't be seeing you that much, eh?". Yea, probably not unless we have a really mild winter.

With these temps, I'll be gymmin' it this week.
