I think today was close to my limit for running suffering! It's 30 degrees and gusting to 35 mph. I ran down by the river on the little road because there was still some fog and I felt it was too cold to commit to a run around the lake. In one direction I was directly into the wind and the other, directly downwind. Into the wind was very similar in effort to running up a fairly steep hill. That may be the closest I can come to running hills while I'm up here working. But running downwind was actually fairly comfortable. But I have very pink cheeks from the windburn from the last few days. I think if it gets much colder and the wind gets any stronger I'll have to resort to the treadmill. But if I can run outdoors, I will always do that.
The wind sock tells the story!
This hill across from the river branch at the end of my running road also tells a story.

I suspect the big furry critter who dug that huge hole has settled down for the winter. I always wondered where the bears go to hibernate around here. I think I know now!
