Despite the fact that there is a nasty snowstorm out there, I did 2.18 km in 33 minutes - dressed like the michelin tire mascot. I have this little nikeplus ipod pedemetre thingy and it is SO FRUSTRATING. Took me four days to make it work, and then tonight it seemed to only record 1/2 of tthe trek. I will try to calibrate it at the gym’s track this week, but I am very very disappointed. By the comments on the usergroup, I am not the only one having problems, apparently there are a lot of people who paid for this cute little doohickey only to find it is at best a beta device.
However, I have mapped my usual walking routes on google so I can calculate speed and distance. I am faintly thinking of working up to running. If only I was a graceful, flowing runner, instead of a leaden plodder.

I am absolutely in awe of all you people who exercise in those cold, cold temps!!! Here I am complaining about dipping into the low 30’s and 20’s.
Me too (and I’m from the frozen north). I tend to hibernate in the winter, trying hard to escape it each year.
“If only I was a graceful, flowing runner, instead of a leaden plodder.”
If I had a nickel for ever time I had that exact same thought…
But props to you for getting out in spite of the cold. I am such a delicate flower (sarcasm), I only work out inside when things get frosty.
