I'm really going nuts here. I'm also a runner and at least for the last several winters I've always been able to run outside two or three times a week. This winter it's been either too cold, too windy, too slippery, or any combination of the three! I'm a lot more cautious these days since things tend to get hurt easier and take longer to heal as I get older. In fact, I've still got some quite sore ribs a week after taking a fall while X-C skiing.

As far as biking goes, I reconditioned my bikes in my shop downstairs (needed a space heater even there!), and the other day I registered for a bike tour in June to give myself something to look forward to. From here, it's hard to imagine what it would feel like to be "too hot to ride!"
