So I've never really cared for running, but maybe once every two or three months I get the urge to go jog around the neighborhood. It'll be fun, I think. I'm in pretty good shape, I think. I've been cooped up inside all day, I think. And I'll toss on clothes I can get sweaty in and go. I'm rarely out for more than 20 minutes (and usually half of that time is spent walking), but it's not a bad way to get a bit of exercise.
Unless, of course, you toss on your running shorts and a T-shirt and go bounding out your door into the sun to discover that it is thirty-seven degrees Fahrenheit out there.
Within a block I had to turn around because my hands were going numb. I'm putting on another two layers of clothing and trying this again.
