Sunday Randomness #595: Why not do your first 5K in the snow?

 Start: Cold and windy

End: Even colder and snowy

Result: Warm clothes, turning up the heater, and drinking hot chocolate when we got home. 

We didn't know if we were going to do the 5K, finish, and make it back in one piece so we kind of kept it a little quiet to see if we could accomplish the goal.  Well, goal accomplished. We're planning to do more 5K's in the future!
