Perfect winter day in my mind.
A couple of weeks ago, I ran around the Seawall in Vancouver in some light running gear, even though it was the pitch black of the early morning in a light rain. About an hour and 20 minutes back to the hotel. Beautiful!!!

This past weekend, I was running around Fish Creek Park in Calgary and, upon finishing and heading home, found myself confronting the deep, deep, DEEP agony of de-frosting a certain part of the male anatomy thanks to the minus 13 temperature, aided by a biting wind chill.

In that vein, with a high-pitched voice, I can certainly say that winter in Vancouver, even including the rain, certainly has some advantages over the cold of Calgary.
