Day 101: Thurs Nov 21st - Holy Batman it's Cold!

Day One Hundred-One: Holy Batman it's cold!
Property of the county water company.
I have no idea what it used to be.

I don't know Batman, nor if he's holy, but I do know that it was pretty cold this morning running in sleet / rain / snow with only shorts, long sleeve tech shirt and (luckily) a pair of gloves I found.
It had been so mild lately that I failed to really check the weather, which is unusual for me, being the self-proclaimed weather nerd that I am.
My hair has also seen better days pre the 100 days before I started on this adventure. Now it's all about getting up early, getting kids ready, getting out the door, making the most of every minute out on my run and getting back just in time to shower, throw on work clothes, mango/kale smoothie and out the door with my still wet hair up in a ponytail.  In fact, when I actually styled my hair for the funeral this past weekend, I was stunned to see how much longer it had grown.  I almost didn't recognize myself.

Day 53: Fri Oct 4th - Mrs Miss-Match

Day Fifty-three:
                                                 SOMETIMES......
 
....SLEET HAPPENS
 
 
Brrrrr..... it was a chilly 36 degrees outside this morning (according to my outdoor temp gage) and it felt like it. Luckily, I found a miss-match pair of gloves to wear, though I probably looked a bit ridiculous wearing funky gloves, black shorts, long sleeve running shirt, bright blue Mizuno shoes, green hat, and a fluorescent vest.  A colorful, miss-match, cold weather run.... but still a great 'sleety' morning :)
