It happened this weekend. It got down to 25° outside here in Minneapolis and my outdoor run was miserable. Miserable because I was not prepared.

As my friend and I ran, we were both in shock at how every year on that first really cold day, we can’t remember to dress properly. After 20+ years in Minnesota, I have learned to embrace the cold-weather outfitting that can make running in frigid weather comfortable and enjoyable. But for some reason it takes a brutal reminder that first cold day.
