Snowy FREEZING 2mi race. Felt like running in sand. Car said it was -2 when I got out.
Rescue Run 10k
Run race 52:33 [4] 6.25 mi (8:25 / mi) +783ft 
shoes: Screw Shoes (Brooks Axiom)
2nd race of the day, hilly 10k. Road was horrendously icy (with a few soft patches), trails felt like running on sand. Still very cold, but not was brutal as for the 8am race. I need to put new screws in my shoes since they don't have nearly as much bite as they used to. I had to be a bit cautious and I nearly fell into some guy once when I slipped on a slanted rock covered in snow. My hip flexors are really really sore from running hard on loose surfaces today.

It was so cold. I was worried my contacts would get blown out in the biting wind so dealt with foggy glasses instead.
