Nice work! Keep it up, you're well on your way.

Sounds like fun but I don't know if I could stay motivated in the winter.

Thank you! Once you start running, you realize weather is not really a factor.

I wear pretty much the same clothes even if it is -10C. Just need a beanie and some thin gloves.

But it may help to start running during summer. Once you are past 3-4 weeks of running it is harder to stop than to continue.

I do run. I also have no problem stopping in winter. I'm not nearly as hardy as you.

Though I do get a few runs in on an indoor track.
