I missed my scheduled run yesterday, so headed out this morning to make up the mileage.
I should have run yesterday!
It was -11 this morning; -20 with the wind chill. Not shorts & t-shirt weather.
You know it's cold when:
- Your hands are steaming at the end of the run
- You have ice inside your gloves (I kid you not - I had two sets of gloves on, and there were big ice crystals between them!)
Nice run despite that though, and surprisingly there were quite a few runners out... though maybe I just noticed them more as there was no-one about apart from us crazies!
One cool highlight: I found a new way down into a ravine footpath I like to run along. Given my mission to not repeat any routes, having a new option is a good thing.
Oh, and I actually motivated myself to run in -20 - that should be a highlight too!

I've ran in -16 c in Calgary one year. And had to take my wet gloves off. Brrrrr
Bravo on your run in -20!
No , I don't miss the cold winters. But around Christmas time , I miss the snow...
