Winter ain't here yet, but MAN is it cold out!

This is when it gets tough training for a spring marathon.  When the mercury plummets, and stays well below freezing all day.  Those fun summertime morning runs when a t-shirt, shorts, and light socks are distant memories; now it's North Face this and Windshell that, Smartwool socks, tights, etc.  For a 4-mile run.  Four miles!

Also have to start factoring in the "actual" weather, i.e. rain (regular or freezing?), sleet, snow, wind.  Road status if running remotely.  Are shoes dry from the last run?  Need another pair of tights! 

So much for "strap on the shoes and hit the road"!
