I have a light weight REI running jacket, and will put layers on underneath depending on the temps. If it is just a short run I’ll go without rain protection and accept I’ll get a little damp if it is drizzle rain.
Practical and comfortable
Getting rainy weather gear to get out during the winter PNW months.
Merino wool!

Injinji toe socks! haven't had blisters around my toes since.

business press: we can’t have any economy deniers in government

business press: not like that
Stuck in Florida for a couple of extra days, but hopefully will be warmer in Portland when I get home later this week.
Felt cooped up and decided to go for a walk outside, and it is so cold out! But it reads nice seeing a lot of people still out in the city after the holidays.
Gingery Chicken Meatballs with Sesame Chili Crisp Glaze and “Twice Baked” Avocado for dinner! And a Maniac Cop 1 and 2 double feature for Sunday Scaries!
Thankfully I got done before the rain came in!
Got a few more miles in today!
I usually have to remind myself that I used to have sub zero temps before I moved to PNW. But I'm usually freezing when the temps fall into the 40s now!
I guess warmer than it has been, lol
Starting on my 700km goal for 2026! Took advantage of the warm(ish) winter day in Portland.
Little New Year’s Day home with the boyfriend to test our new hiking boots! And yes mine are baby blue.
Did I make a Caramel Apple “Upside-down” cake for the Stranger Things watch tonight? … yeah I did!

I think what would help folks feel safe is the following:
1) Turn off KATU
2) Log Off NextDoor
3) Go Outside
I love that I can walk to my Trader Joe’s and that the small parking lot limits the car traffic in the area!
The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.
