I was just reading about all of the things that people yell at us when we run, but what about responses we get when we run in the dead of winter? Here's a few I've gotten.

1. I was running with my team on a cold, cold day when an old lady stops her boat of a car, opens the door and yells, "Y'all is CRAZY!" Then she went right on her way. We got a good laugh out of that one.

2. Today I was running during a snowstorm, and a lady getting into her car amicably said to me, "My, you're pretty hard core, aren't you?"

3. One time a guy leaned out of his house and yelled, "Nice ass!" but I didn't see any donkeys around. He was probably drunk.

re: got snow balls

I ran a cross-country race in November in New England when the wind chill was 19 below. I did not wear underpants and relied on my "French brief" and trocot shorts only. Bad move. I'm ordinarily hung like a donkey (not bragging; just being factual), but by the end of the 5K race I was down to about 1/2" of white, bone-cold he-flesh. When I got on the bus I was terrified to even look at myself based on signals being relayed to m'brain from m'crotch. There was even a nurse on the bus (some kid's mom who had ridden up with the team to watch) who wanted to look at it when she saw me hunkered over in my seat in pain but I declined the offer. I really thought I was headed for the hospital that day, but after a while I was back to normal.

The worst thing about cold weather is the frostbite on the dick, I have heard it called many things, but my favorite term is "penal frostbite." It always happens to me when I want to just go for a short morning run and I dont think I'll be out there long enough to get it, but I always do. This is why I consider Spandex to be the greatest invention ever

Frozen ice on top of three inches of snow. After 30 minutes doing speedwork on the track, my ankles were bloody knobs.

I, um, have no comment other than you get style points for admitting to this 'slave to your workout' half-hour.

Good grief! What's the matter with a guy who doesn't realize in the first few minutes of running that he's going to freeze his balls to death if he doesn't get home and put some whitey tighteys on?! I've gotten haircicles and frostbite on my ears, but I take care of the important parts! I've also slipped on ice and sprained my wrist-on Christmas day!

re: Captain Haddock

running 8miles in hell, windy as hell. raining on top of that between hail, so the temp was dancing in and out of freezing. the rain was very hard, with the wind it was terrible. torture, but i wanted to run a pr and win that year so i was out no matter what. a slave to the cause then.

first day running ever for track a long time ago. i talked to a teacher about running track so the coach said run and get ready because pre-season training starts soon. well i never "ran" before and had no idea what i was doing. let alone knew what to wear. i eneded up in swim trunks (no soccer shorts and p.e clothes were at school in my locker) on a cold december night with a polo shirt (soccer inspiration) in basketball shoes. what a joke i must of looked. so... ended up freezing my butt off totally. got home looked down and almost screamed. i knew my balls had hurt but damn, even my dick was blue, totally devoid of blood, and hard. i put a warm towel and prayed it wasnt damaged.
