    Cold weather is supposed to be better on your lungs, hot weather you obviousy sweat more. Beside that I'm not sure.

    If you can get through a training session in a cold enviornment, mentally, you will be better prepared for other things knowing you were able to push through that.

    I know I always get a sense of satisfaction sticking through a full set of sprints out in 20 degree weather when I could have taken the easy way out and cheated myself out.
