Mmmm, I could live on maple syrup no problem Ker.

Actually, I prefer to skate to school because my husky dogs make me itchy…. That's also the reason I have to keep my polar bear on a leash outside.

As my mom always says when I get something new: "Wear/use it in good health!"… or at least as good health as you can, k?

Yup, riding to school on dog sleds with our pet polar bears in tow
And all we eat is maple syrup, eh Danielle?

Yeah, it's crazy what they have these days! Did I mention that my dad bought me a pair of fancy cold-weather tights while he was here? They are awesome and I love them.

Thanks for the tips, I might look into a jacket instead. At 3 degrees (around 36F) I find I can just get by with layering tech tops but that's not gonna work for much longer!

Hi Danielle, It's just mind boggling all the stuff they have for running . You could go broke buying all the latest apparel and gadgets. There are several light weight running jackets out there that are more like windbreakers and might work better for you. I would think that with the freezing temps, that you would need better arm protection than could offered with a vest.

Ive been finding that with this particular vest , that I still need to wear a long sleeve shirt underneath it when it's cold outside. When it gets above 50 degrees, I actually have to unzip the vest, cuz it gets too warm.

Happy Running!

I have a huge kitchen . It's the easiest place to set the camera down:-)

What kind of "cold weather" are ya talking about? [Just a little dig from a Canadian to a Californian ]

I'm also known for carrying wayyy too much stuff in my pockets–even though 90% of the time I have some other variety of bag with me LOL. Phone, iPod and puffer are always in the pockets though [and, right now is my Tim Horton's card, a receipt and my house key. Even though I have a backpack haha]

Very cool vest though. Also, I enjoy how the majority of your modeling pictures are in that spot.

Fancy! I'm asking for something like this for Christmas. It gets pretty darned cold here so I need something to keep my core warm but I also heat up quite a bit when I run so I think a vest like this one would be just the thing. Good luck on your walk today.
