Meh, not that cold. That temp is easy to deal with for a northerner like me. Although the weight thing I'd have to get used to.
I remember my walks to school, 3 miles (sure its short) in minus 40 degree weather. Just so we're aware, minus 40 is the same in celcius as farenheit. I can't do those walks anymore, that was highschool, now I have a car, BRING ON JANUARY!!
