I also live in Maryland...and I don't usually run outside if it's less than 30 degrees...I know...I'm a wimp! But I love the Maryland heat and have no problem running in the crazy hot/humid weather.

I am not sure how cold I would go I have done 20ish before but it was at a race, my problem other than that is the people who live near me are complete tool boxes and I think they aim for runners so I try to stay off the roads as much as I can and I refuse to DRIVE somewhere when it is super cold out just to run unless it is a race. I have a treadmill in my basement with a large TV, DVD and roku so I have no excuse to skip that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336273598199876862.post-30310680454590826892013-01-25T17:00:07.202-05:002013-01-25T17:00:07.202-05:00RG3 ran the other night in about 19 degrees, it wa...RG3 ran the other night in about 19 degrees, it wasn't too bad once we got going.

I don't go outside for runs if it's too cold and windy because it's too cold for the stroller cargo, but babies are weak.<br /><br />I haven't jumped rope since I used to teach a boot camp kick boxing class.

But you have to find ways to mix it up like routines and programs. If you have a good treadmill you can program it and it can keep track of your progress which help you to keep going.

I also hate winds and such. The treadmill I have at home at not a very good one and only goes up in increments of .5 so I'm either going too fast or too slow and it sucks. I also end up yelling at my kids at some point so I will just stick to the Y treadmills for now. Except last night some guy kept trying to talk to me that was on the treadmill next to me and I kept having to take my earbuds out saying "HUH" every time. Then, he got off of his treadmill at exactly the same time that I did so I was scared I was going to be murdered in the parking lot. Well, here I am today so obviously that didn't happen.

It was rough, but thankfully I had my own personal tv, music and a magazine to keep me from getting too bored. I've been running on the treadmill a lot because I don't really like to run in the dark. <br />I can't believe that amount of snow causes a two hour delay. I wish it would snow here because winter seems more bearable with it.
