It was definitely “Chilly” yesterday for the 10K. The AI summary “wasn’t wrong” though perhaps at -23⁰F before wind-chill it was understating the cold.
My layering was on point, so I felt great.
Then heartbroken after the race to learn about another killing by ICE in Mpls.

The receipt from my daughter’s insult booth. I had a pass holder discount and she was also running a sale. Quite the deal, I got one insult and one compliment.

Oh come on, I’m in Excel getting an in-app promotional banner ad to upgrade from one paid plan to a higher paid plan?? Booo!
Two hours of email service transfer troubleshooting with my Dad… Net result is he’s on a better service so I’m glad for that.
My thoughts throughout my run were primarily on how unpredictable and dangerous the ice is this morning. The timing of this in relation to my last update is not lost on me 😕
Seriously though, stay safe running or even walking out there today.
As a Minnesotan and parent of young kids in public school, I’ve never been so intimidated as I am by ICE entering the state and “protecting us”.
There was no credible threat before ICE showed up here and started this madness. I have no trust in the practices being used and things are far more dire than they were a week ago.
