- It may be more uncomfortable to run in very cold weather but it is
- actually physically more difficult to run in very hot weather. I've run
- in the 20's (F) and it's harder to convince myself to go out and start
- than when I've run with it over 110 (F), but the latter is harder on the
- body once started. My point: don't conclude that runners are wimps
- just because they live in hot weather.
