It snowed last night. Our high temperature hovered right around 32F. Got up late. Messed around. Went to a Furman women's basketball game, they beat Western Carolina 73 -44. Once we got home it was still sunny, if cold. Somehow my carport was dry so I layered up and went outside for my kettlebell practice.

And yes, it was still 32F when I started training. I did my normal original strength reset followed by a "Founder", kettlebell halos & an arm bar. I would be lying if I said I wasn't cold! My fingers and toes were freezing. My legs, back, core, shoulders, etc. were nicely warmed up though. Warm up took 19:27. Oh, I didn't crawl in the snow but on the dry concrete of my carport. Slower than on grass but doable.
Not much to say about the swings and getups. The cold wind kept me moving quickly. No problems. Good form, good power. Finished up in 20:19. Man was I glad to get indoors! Yesterday I got 10,554 steps! I won't get anywhere near that today what with the snow and ice on the ground.
