An exceptionally warm day.  I thought a couple weeks ago I would never wear shorts in January again, but here I was in shorts.  Today broke some records (set in 1914) for the warmest January day (62 degrees).  I wore long sleeves but shouldn't have.

It is hard for me to run outside during the week just because of timing, but I had a dentist appointment.  Left work early and had time to run before picking up the kids. It was glorious!

It's supposed to get cold again quickly, like 20 degrees on Thursday with a negative windchill.

Really? Long sleeves? Oh brother!

That's what I was saying in my head through the whole run. It was windy and I was foolishly thinking that would make a difference.

Only if you want to act like a flying squirrel.

Whatever happened to Squirrel? She's an Illinois girl. Have you seen her around?
