I had a difficult run today. It was soooooo cold ! and the wind was terrible. I was slipping on the ice and the snow really slowed me down. I was going for 10k but I only managed slow 6k. Other runners didn't seem to have a problem as they all passed me with little effort.

I had read an article that said all you need is long underwear and an extra sweatshirt. Well, I wore 2 pairs of sweatpants, 3 sweatshirts, a turtle neck, ski gloves and a ski hat and still froze. The temperature was around -14C with the windchill.

The weather is an obstacle right now. I really need to practice for my upcoming race in May but I'm not sure how. I hate treadmills, so that is not an option for me. What can I do to beat the bad weather?

There is snow in the forecast for the upcoming week
