It is 13º outside, with snow on the ground, and no wind.
No wind is the operative word. Yesterday's 18º and 14 mph north wind told us a much different story - especially walking and running back to the house in that old north wind. I have always poo-poo-ed a "wind-chill factor", because the insipid weather TV folk make such a big durn deal of it. But, yes, there was a real wind chill on the only exposed parts of my body during yesterdays' walk-run. Only my eyes and eyebrows were exposed to the windy temps yesterday during my 5K walk-and-then-some-run, and I have to tell you: last night my eyes stung and were bloodshot.
Bleak midwinter.
Note to self: renew that University Rec Center pass. Needs are needs; that Spouse o' Mine is grumpy...
