What an experience! Should I run or not? I never tried so I searched the internet and found a few others who had faced these conditions, sooooooo I guess I can try :) It's a beautiful sunny day at around -14°C, with gust of winds bringing it further down. I started as usual and after a few minutes took my windbreaker and shirt off, and still no gloves or hat. My fingers froze faster, but I could handle it, and my core felt fine. The extreme temperature energized me and I started to run faster. Concentrating on my breathing and posture I started to feel unknown tingling sensations along my arms. "Do I feel fine?" I asked myself. "Yes" and made it all the way to the Old port, 6k. The last stretch I was a bit out of breath, so felt relieved for my halfway break and happy to take the photo and your video, but kept it short. It's 6k back home now!
I kept my Santa hat, but it confused my body "Is he cold or warm?" Taking it off made it easier to concentrate and run. after a few K's the wind picked up and my arms felt frozen in a new more intense way. I went into a sprint swinging my arms and opening and closing my palm. It helped. Still later new pains appeared around the fat of my arms, slowly spreading to my fingers, but I pushed through as my core was fine. My face and legs were always comfortable, but my ears started to ache for the first time. Then a third wave of cold through my arms, and with one K left I started to feel miniature shivers "This is not good" That was it, the signal. Fingers numb I fought to untie my windbreaker, and it's zip was even worse. "Forget the t-shirt!" After a good minute I was able to close it and put some gloves on. It felt better, so I started to run again but a pain hit one calf, so slowed down. 200 meters from home I started to shiver and walking became harder, but I just had to get home. Finally in the corridors of my apartment building I felt dizzy, opened the door and awkwardly undressed and plunged to the bathroom for a hot shower. There I trembled, and finally my body calmed down. I took a long warm bath and afterwards a nap. Now I feel pure rest and bliss. No pain, no frostbite, all is well.
Many lessons here, first it is possible, second I am in tune with my body and take good decisions, third, there are different degrees of sensations, fourth, the last hundred meters I lost my concen

suis-je le seul à trouver les escaliers de la gare de Lachine absurdement glissants quand c'est mouillé? J'ai fait une plainte, mais <ils n'ont pas le personnel pour aller voir>, je me demande quoi faire parce que je n'ai aucun doute que quelqu'un/moi va se peter la geule.solide éventuellement et j'aimerais essayer de prévenir ça...
ou ais-je des standards trop élevés de ne pas vouloir que mes pieds partent quand je pile sur une marche...
My girlfriend and I are having an « argument ». She lives in Lachine, I live in Longueuil. I casually mentioned that we both live in suburbia and she was offended lol.
What does the Reddit hive mind have to say on the subject? Is Lachine a suburb?
La question est dans le titre. Je me suis souvent demandé pourquoi Montréal est devenue une si grosse ville.
Son "importance géographique" vient-elle du fait que les bateaux de l'époque ne pouvaient pas franchir le rapide de Lachine sans portage? Et donc c'était "la fin du chemin" et la seule porte d'entrée dans le territoire au-delà. J'ai eu de la misère à trouver des infos là dessus.
So I know that they were building a bike path that goes along Saint-Jacques and across the 20 near Angrignon Boul. that connects to the canal...
Does anyone know if it's been completed? I'm not really a fan of sharing a road with cars getting on the highway. Otherwise, I can always take the long way around through Westmount or Ville-Saint-Pierre but those seem a little out of the way.
Appreciate any advice you can give!
La piste cyclable du canal Lachine va être mon meilleur chemin pour aller au boulot.
Je finis tard des fois vers 10:00-11:00.
Est-ce que c'est sécuritaire ce chemin là le soir ou c'est moyen?
J'ai peut être l'air parano mais mon ami s'est fait attaquer par une gang sur Rachel aux shop Angus et je suis plus prudent maintenant.
Merci!
