I don't know if it's random each time, Off Roader got one at about 11:30 and I got one at 11:36, so you probably only just missed out. Although she say's she didn't get one yesterday.

Morning again. 5 miles before work I've noticed the last couple of times when running in sub-zero temperatures that my fingers get gradually colder to the point of being painful by about 1 to 1.5 miles, but then imperceptibly warm-up and are fine by 2 miles. Weird, eh? This is quite common for me. Once the core warms up it can "spare" energy to the hands and feet. But if it is really cold, they never get warm enough. I recommend gloves (sometimes two pairs), jackets with the bits that go over the thumbs or too-long sleeves and pockets to stuff things in after you heat up. |

Oh no Carp, healing vibes for your calf. After 5 days rest I went out for a gentle run to test my poorly calf. No pain but after a couple of miles it was starting to stiffen and I was limping a bit so I took that as a sign to call it a day. 2.5 miles total with walking up the hills, happy with that as long as my calf stays ok. |

Weird, eh? A while back I was given tip of holding your hands in a fist within the palm area of your gloves for the first five minutes of your warm-up (walk or run) before then extending your fingers into the glove fingers. I haven't had an issue or cold fingers out running since. (but I still can get raynauds symptoms once home, unfortunately). |

I do similar things TeeBee (including the tell tale white fingers appearing at random times after I get home, however warm my hands end up while out).

Another trick is to put your gloves on 5 minutes (or so) before you leave. So they are warmed and ready to insulate from the start. Having said that, I do like my winter shirt with the thumbhole so I can make a fist and hold the sleeve round it. Today's run - which took me over 100 miles for the year - a 7 mile recce for deer in preparation for another deer stalk with the camera. I'm glad I did it, because other than 2 stags a mile in, none to be seen. No herds, nothing. So I probably won't be walking there over the weekend. Still cold - puddles with ice, ground frozen in the shade. But sunny. |
