Polar Vortex Workout Casualties?

My local Community Center is closing tomorrow for the first time in its history due to projected ACTUAL temperatures of -25F and wind chills near -50F. While I appreciate their concern for there staff and clients, it falls smack dab in the middle of my weekly workout retinue. Was just wondering how many others were dealt a blow by this 2019 Polar Vortex? Sleeping in? :bed:

    -9 air temp this AM when I left for practice at 5:15am. Last two months Id say 50% of the AMs have been below 0 air temp. Schools closed a few days but pool / qym at the school has stayed open entire time. Its my excuse to do 1650 warmups. We have been about 20 degrees below normal during the last two months. Grew up in northern MN and went to a HS swim meet in Int. Falls junior year. Out of school early for meet and was -20F. Got back at 1am on a school night and jumped started people for an hour before I went home. It was -43F air temp. Never will never forget that one. Benefit was parents would always let me drive to AM practice :)
