(That's 5.5 C for our European cohorts). Best exercise I had all day. Of course, it was the ONLY exercise, but why quibble? I did the 1.5 miles barefoot.
Nice! Run or walk/hike? I don't think people realize if your foot muscles are working instead of sitting there doing nothing inside a shoe, your feet can stay reasonably warm in surprising temperatures. I've barefoot hiked with melting snow along side and in some places on the trail. I was surprised how relatively warm my feet were as long as I kept moving.
Nice going, nuspieds!!! Ya....it's very invigorating!...isn't it. I can take it down to about 39 degrees f.
still about 20 C° here. took a sunbath yesterday. found the stickiest.mud.ever. on paths in the wood. there were trails that rain in the past days (which also gave me the opportunity for a refreshing nightly rain shower) had them turned into a perfectly smooth, inviting and flat carpet of mud :2thumbsup:. the bad news was, a very slippery kind of that. i could barely stand and walk and a couple of times i almost had a mud bath. had to wash that away before visiting a supermarket and a couple of hw stores... p.s.the oatmeal is some smart fella.
I try to stay away from running in 40 degree weather simply because my feet get a little numb and I can't feel the ground....Not good!
I went running one day last week when it was around 39 F I think. Wore a jacket and lined tights, but no shoes or gloves. Hands and feet felt nice and warm after the first mile.
