8.5k in the wind

[alisonx]

Managed a longish run on Saturday - my days it was windy and unfortunately for me a fair stretch of my route seemed to be against the wind...so whilst i was peeved that my time for the km was slower, looking back at the battle i did pretty good!

A few hills incorporated...i can really see the difference in my ability now so another thing to be proud of.

Going out again tonight in more favorable conditions all being well

Happy running everyone!

8.5k in the wind, and with some hills, is a great run. It’s not easy. Well done for getting out there. Hope today’s run has been good 😁

That’s brilliant. And in that blasted wind 💨 too. I literally cried my run on Saturday. Tears streaming down my face. Looked even worse than normal running. Blinking wind I need wind glasses.

I only managed 5k on Saturday because it was so windy and muddy I was in serious danger of being blown off the cliff path! Well done 8km is a fantastic distance under those conditions.

Well done. Especially in the wind 💨🍃

Hope tonight was better

Well done alisonx ...running in the wind last week beat me...I had 50mph gusts blowing straight up my nose, I felt like I was running and fighting at the same time and worried I might end up joining the ducks in the canal, what a shock that would’ve been for all involved!!....so I gave up after 2k!! So hats (blown) off to you...you did good!

Thanks Mummycav. The wind here was not as bad as that thankfully but a battle none the less. Strangely i quite enjoyed the challenge

No you don't want to go swimming with the ducks, that is not part of the plan
