We all know how easy it is to fall into excuses during this time of year. It’s too cold, it’s too windy, there’s snot coming out of my nose (hey just keeping it real), my bed is too warm etc. I found some cold weather running funnies on Pinterest that explain my exact thoughts sometimes. To be honest, I love the cold but the early dark mornings can be tough! HA. That just makes you that much more of a badass though if you get it done.
In no particular order…
Are you getting your run on today?
Done and done.
What’s the weather like in your neck of the woods?
LOL. Speaking of mother nature’s next hissy fit, it’s supposed to rain today and I will be out and about getting some miles in. This running streak is getting me into all sorts of trouble. 🙂
You can do it! The run streak is always such a fun thing to do!
Haha this is so me! I ran in a tank top the other day because it hit 40 degress and I was like Yes!! Perfect running weather haha.
Girl! 40 to 45 degrees is like my sweet spot for running especially running long. I love it!!
Oh yea, I am with you there. Best temp for running hard or running long 🙂
Or both! 😉
haha I’m not there yet, I can do one or the other :-p
You do what you can! We are all on our own journeys, as long as you’re still moving you are rocking it!
Heck Yea!!
When I see those running groups up at the crack of dawn in windchill temperatures, I know they must love running!
Yep! Morning/cold weather runners…we can be pretty hardcore!!
All of these!!! However, tomorrow morning run… I might die! Temps in the teens! I would rather be cold hot ANYDAY!!

Oh the teens are not all THAT bad…haha I did 12 miles in 18 degrees a couple of weeks ago! My hands were numb and I loved it! *evil laughter*
Omg beast mode!!!
It’s the dark evenings for me (I don’t do early morning pre-work runs). Last nights gentle 5 miler brought a nice surprise, the local authorities have put in new street lamps along my regular route so it was bright as day in places and made me feel a lot safer. Plus loads of people still had their Christmas lights up, which was pleasant!
I hear ya! Evening runs can be nice too! I like to change it up once in a while 🙂
You know when it’s 12 degrees outside, you’re not going to encounter any weirdos. Because you’re weirder for being out there 🙂
True story!
BAHAH. You know these posts make my whole day!
Yay! 🙂
I’ll take running in the cold over running in the HEAT. Though, we were looking to relocate, and I’m not sure I can handle FL or TX heat in the summer. LOLLLL
It’s seriously a hot MESS! Cold weather is my jam for sure!
