Erin Does Life.

Adventures in movement
Inspired by BenDoesLife. Early thirties, working to get to an average BMI, vegan. Adult-onset runner; completed two marathons with Team In Training and now I can't stop running. Go figure.

bendoeslife: Next time you complain about it being cold, remember… Canadian kindergartners are going to school when it’s -88 degrees Fahrenheit.  MINUS 88! Kind of splitting hairs, but those temps are with windchill, not air temperature. Still plenty cold though, especially when you’re sitting at the end of a long driveway waiting for a bus to pick you up. Also, the letter is dated 1980…?
