Gooooooood morning!

I started my day with a chilly morning run. When I headed outside, I saw frost on the grass! Brrrrr!

044

I actually planned to go to CrossFit today, but my upper body was super sore from yesterday’s workout, so I switched it up with an easy 3-mile run.

A bunch of you guys have asked me what I wear for cold weather runs, so here’s a picture of what I wore this morning for 40-degree (F) weather:

  • Long-sleeve tech top with a tank top (or t-shirt) underneath
  • Crops
  • Flip Belt
  • Socks and sneakers
  • Gloves

046

I love these running gloves from New Balance because they have special touch screen fingertips, so I can change stations/songs and snap photos on my iPhone during my runs. (FYI: I’ll nix the gloves if the weather is in the upper 40’s.)

When the temperature drops below 40 degrees, I’ll wear a heavier long-sleeve top/jacket, longer pants, and maybe a hat (I like this one with a hole in the back for my ponytail), but everything else stays the same.

When the temperature drops below 30 degrees, I don’t usually run outside because I’m a big wuss. Same goes for snow. If there’s a lot of snow on the ground, I won’t normally run outside. I’m always worried about slipping and falling, so it’s not worth the risk to me. Plus, it’s frickin’ cold!

Breakfast

After my run, I quickly showered and then made a big French Toast Breakfast Scramble and poured it into an empty Teddie jar. We had two jars (Super Chunky and Unsalted) open at the same time, which is why you saw one the other day on CNC. We also just really love peanut butter and eat a lot of it!

After breakfast, I drank a glass of iced Dandy Blend with eggnog. (I finally gave up on that Rice Nog and just bought the real stuff.)
