Coldest sporting even you have ever participated in?

In 2010 I did the Miss Blues Marathon and it snowed almost the entire time with temps never getting out of the teens, but this weekend I am supposed to do a half Ironman with temps at race start forecasted to be 28 with a wind chill of 19. Hopping on the bike about 8 am and it should warm up to a balmy 31 with a wind chill of 25. By the time I would end the bike it shouldn't be so bad in the mid 40's, but I'm really starting to think about sitting this one out.

Had a swim meet at the S. Foster YMCA and it had to be in the mid 40s. The indoor pool had too much chlorine in it so we swam in the outdoor pool. Not sure if it was heated (must have been) but it was cold as hell on the starting blocks.

probably duck hunting in Arkansas when the temp was around 15 degrees, sitting in a sunken blind.

I played football my senior year and it was probably like 35. The worst part was the rain and the wind though. Having to be on the sideline when the defense was on the field was miserable.

2004 MPSA playoffs. It was in the mid 30's at kickoff and close to freezing by the end of the game. I was a freshman and played just enough to get sweaty which made it worse.

Swim meet at Francos. It was maybe in the 30s and drizzling. The pool was heated but it was freezing otherwise. We all got in the showers in between our heats.

I whitewater kayak a lot, the best time of the year is the winter in the NC mountains bc of the rain and river levels. Coldest - 18 degrees.

I think so. But, someone else ran it shirtless so that guy that died must have been a p*55y.
It was crazy to see the sweat from peoples ear buds forming ice cycles like earrings.
