Heavy legs and frostbite cheeks

Ever had one of those days where your legs felt like they had 20 pound weights attached to them? Well I had one of those days today. The training schedule called for a 17 mile run today, but when the alarm went off and I looked out the window that the thermometer it was time to go back to bed. This morning it was 2 degrees and with the windchill in full effect it was -10 at times. I postponed my run till 8:30 and decided to cut it short and call it an even 8 miler. After a cup of warm coffee my day still isn't complete. Even if the temp only raised to 10 degrees, it's perfect for XC skiing. There's no excuse not to enjoy the cold weather even if you have heavy legs and frostbitten cheeks!
