Getting ready to brave the cold.
26 degrees and we are freezing our butts off.
Today, Rene and I braved the 26 degree weather working with our fellow Striders. Our annual Frostbite run brought 9,000 runners into our base. I don't think I have ever seen so many people in one place at one time here on base. We began our weekend unloading boxes on Friday evening. Saturday, we unloaded more boxes and supplies, set up tents, and organized. Today, we worked all day at registration then as road guards. Aside from the frozen toes, we had a fun time. It is always interesting to see the interesting costumes as the runners do their 1/2 marathon run. The 80 year olds are very inspirational. We are thankful we have the day off tomorrow. Our running club runs one of the top 1/2 marathons in Japan. Pretty Impressive!
