Frostbite Series - 13.1 miles
We ran in an actual race today for our training run. It was a half marathon (13.1 miles) through Forest Park, called the Frostbite series. It was about 33 degrees, but not cold enough to get actual frostbite. The real bite was the 3 inches of slush that covered the race course. Within the first minutes our shoes and socks were soaked through. My sweatpants were not ideal for this weather because as you can see in the picture, the moisture from the slush wicked all the way up my pant legs. While we only ran 1.1 miles farther than last Saturday, it really felt like a million mile difference. I was wet, tired, and mentally beat up today, but I finished. It was a tough day and I'm still upsest about the whole idea of it, so I'll have to leave it at that.
