New Year's Day Freezeroo

Mike and Mike - Freezeroo @ Mendon Ponds 2014

 

What story is being told by these facial expressions?
A. As MW (on the left) paces (or drags, depending on your perspective) me around the hilly 7.5 mile New Year's day race it is obvious he is telling another joke. From my look it is obviously not a funny  joke.
B. Or it may be that he is in better running shape and the 8:13 mile pace is a breeze?
C. Maybe the 14 degree temperature has my face frozen in a grimace?
D. The Bear has come out (my breathing noise during hard efforts) and MW finds this funny?

I think the answer is E, all of the above.
