Long run in the wet and snow and cold.  It was surprisingly enjoyable though.  I didn't mind too much except my feet and hands got pretty cold again.  Especially my feet.  It's hard to run on ice blocks for feet.  I've heard that by wrapping your feet in a plastic bag of some sort it keeps them warm.  I am going to experiment with that next time there's a cold, wet run to be run.  Anyone else have any experience with that?

interesting. i may have to try that as well -- my feet always seem to go numb the first few miles in the cold weather. as you know, it's really uncomfortable to run like that. i have tried everything -- two pairs of socks (makes it worse), no socks (makes it worse), special "storm" socks (does nothing). plastic bags might be the answer.

i actually think rossy did this on thanksgiving when it was super cold. you may want to ask him about it.

Yeah I was thinking just putting one of those clear gallon sized bags in my shoe before I put my foot in it. I don't have a problem unless my feet get wet and I think that would help.
