Jingle All the Way

Despite the INCREDIBLE tsnownami that hit us in the last 24 hours, the Northfield 9th Annual Jingle Bell run continued.  Dean and I got all bundled up, warmed up the 4 wheel drive vehicle, and made the drive downtown. After running the frigid Turkey Trot, the weather today was warm.  At the start of the run too, there were only 4 to 5 inches of snow on the ground.

There were actually several people that ran, walked, snow-shoed, and skied the course today.  The horse drawn sleigh was there as promised as well.  Dean and I stayed inside the Armory as long as possible.  We warmed our voices for the start line chorus of Jingle Bells.

By the time we finished the run there were serveral more inches of snow and an increased wind speed.  We warmed up with apple cider and rice crispy bars then ventured home.  We have spent the rest of the day watching movies, eating, and staying warm inside!
