Cold Enough?
The 16 of us who showed up last week all got hero biscuits for making it out in such cold weather.  This week should be a breeze by comparison.  A hint for traction… last week the salt dropped on the road made for slippery running but the sidewalks for the most part, even though snow-packed, offered better traction because they hadn’t been salted.  So watch for this when you run… the sidewalks may offer not only a better surface but a safer one.
PLEASE wear reflective outerwear or flashing lights for your own safety.
Tip for WINDchill conditions: apply light layer of Vaseline to exposed skin to protect it from frostbite.
