Regarding my journey with the cold, January 2026 was highly unusual for me.
I wrote this text on the 2nd of February, 2026. It was a day when I was working remotely and when I was not doing either street photography or exposing my body to the cold. Still, when I woke, I noticed that outside was -17 degrees Celsius (1.4 degrees Fahrenheit). In general, for practically all the days in January 2026, there were freezing temperatures. After all, I could walk and test my resilience in -8 degrees Celsius (17.6 degrees Fahrenheit) or even -10 degrees Celsius. It happened before the 15th of January. What happened on that day? If you read my blog regularly, my Dear Friend, undoubtedly, you know what happened. On that day, I received an injury. Because of this injury, I could not walk for one week. Today, I walk very slowly.
I still do not know when I will return to rucking.
Also, due to this injury, I did not want to expose my body to cold. I simply felt and still feel I do not want to. After all, when I was doing it, I was healthy 100%. Also, I could walk as fast as I could. As of now, I must walk really slowly, like a turtle without a shell, vulnerable to all possible hazards. Undoubtedly, the previous month was the most frigid month since I started walking in summer clothes in cold temperatures (It started doing it in the Fall/Winter season 2021/2022). Unfortunately, I could not break my record.
My record was walking for 30 minutes in -12 degrees Celsius (10.4 degrees Fahrenheit). For today, I won’t break it anyhow, as I do not feel 100% healthy, so I do not want to do it. I am not a demigod. I am a simple human who will go to sleep within the next few minutes. Good night, my Dear Friend.
