Uncomfortably numb

Welcome to our sprint team practice at the Vassar Track today. Layers required. The air temperature was 24. There was no sun. There was little wind. It was just COLD. Not a great day for sprinting (above). Not a great day for standing out in the cold (left). There was no lollygagging today. Warmup. Drills. Workout (there is no pain/you are receding ...). Cool down. Ahem. Cool down? There was plenty of COOL and not much down. On this day, the "cool down" was a hasty retreat to the relative warmth of the vans. Cue up the Pink Floyd, but let's alter the lyrics. "I .... have become ... (un)comfortably numb."
