Well yeah, running is about the only thing I prefer Calgary's weather to this.
I left Calgary the day the snow started, last Tuesday. Since then, its been nothing but outdoor patios, palm trees, easy commutes, and some beach time. But the locals here are proud of their ancestry because they survived in the harsh desert climate and persevered. I think us Canadians can take the same pride in our heritage. Except that even in modern living, the snow and cold can't be defeated. The summer heat in the desert nowadays is nothing more than a passing inconvenience walking from your home to your car.
We Canadians are a hardy bunch. I'm just glad I'm not the one who has to be hardy this particular week.
