The Wind Blows Across the Plains

Today was the first Monday I've run during this training cycle, believe it or not. The previous five weeks I've run only three days a week, so this week I guess I'm airing it out. This was an easy five mile run to Target and back. The temperature was in the low 20's, with the now-standard 15 mph wind blowing against me on the return.

Thankfully the wife fitted me out with warm clothes for Christmas, which are paying off big time. Also, I mentioned to her yesterday on the way to church that I kept thinking about moving someplace that was much warmer during the winter. She didn't seem too interested, mainly because a location warm in winter is also likely to be really hot in summer. Bummer.
