What was I Thinking?

So today I left the house and it was about 46 degrees but sunny so I figured that it would warm up so I left my jacket at home. Well as I left to go to lunch at Jared’s house his truck said it was 39! This was at noon and plenty of sun. So help me understand this, sun comes up and the temperature DROPS??? Well that’s what happened today.

When I went home it was about 1700 and I needed to run, so I put on a long sleeve shirt and walked outside. Well I don’t know if it was the temp or the wind (about 28 mph) but I was COLD! So I walked back inside and put on a thermal undershirt and then the long sleeve tee-shirt and tried again. It was still cold and my shorts were not helping but I thought if I just start running I would warm up… WRONG

I was running into the COLD wind and it sucked. I never broke a sweat in the 3.5-4 miles that I ran. My ear phones kept falling out as I think the cord was freezing and moving with my body as I ran, causing them to fall out of my frozen ears. I might have tried to stop them but I couldn’t feel them fall out, only noticed that the music stopped.

When I finally stopped I was going to walk it off by checking the mail but I couldn’t get my fingers to grip the key required for my mail box. This is when I realized that it may not have been the best idea to go running in the cold. So how cold was it you ask… Well when I got back inside Yahoo said that it was 36 outside with the wind blowing at 28 mph, it said the “feels like” temp was 36, I don’t believe it because I think the wind makes it colder but in either case is was a little cold to be running outside without gloves and maybe something other than shorts, or and maybe a parka would have helped.

In short I am READY to head to Florida where it should be 73 this weekend and I plan on spending a lot of quality beach time without a shirt enjoying the warm sun.

Ok bed time but I wanted to share another one of KC’s finest moments.
