For some reason, today I am feeling the change in the season; I'm definitely feeling it colder.
OK, so it's mid September, and I live in Scotland, so it's kind of to be expected but...
One big drawback to this whole getting fitter malarkey is that I have significantly less "insulation" than I had this time last year.
I guess I'll just need to run more to warm myself up...
Really sTrongFuse, you look as if you are on an Arctic expedition in that photograph, I also live in Scotland, it's not all that cold, what are you going to wear come December to March?.
This morning I ran run 3 of week 5 of C25K only wearing my running cap, T shirt and shorts, a little cold at first but I soon warmed up during the run.
Not sure what people will think if you turn up at a parkrun when the temperature is 10C/50F as you are in that photograph and everyone else is in shorts and T shirt 👚 🙄🤔I do agree with you regarding running to keep you warm.
That photo is actually from last winter so I took a bit of a liberty. I'm just moaning about the fact that I've finally admitted defeat and turned the heating back on.
Can't really complain about the summer we've had; I'm just not quite ready for it to be finished.
That said, it's my birthday at the start of October, and when I lived in the far north, having a "white" birthday wasn't an altogether unheard of occurrence. All we need now is for the first utterance of the immortal phrase: "and the A939 Cock Bridge to Tomintoul road is closed" and we'll know that winter has officially begun again...
That is indeed true, that road is always closed when it snows, I wish you in advance a happy birthday 🎂 at the beginning of October. 😊
Some people run all year round in shorts and vest ( I’m not one of them I’m a bit feeble )
This morning I resorted to a thin long sleeve running top.
But I have a lot of running gear cos I’ve been doing it for 10 years it’s amazing the stuff you end up with .
👍 🏃
I am the same. When it gets colder, I have a lightweight chenille "skin" that I wear under my t-shirt and full length running tights for under my shorts (although I can't wear the tights for rugby due to some arcane law of the game). Other than than, it's the same gear all year round.
I like watching 🏉 rugby on 📺 TV but I have never played it.
😂😂you like you're going on the rob. I'm in Scotland also went out today with just a t-shirt as I know within 5 minutes in warm. Still came back sweating and yes like you I have a lot less'insulation' also 😊😊
It's mostly thyroid related in my case. I can be freezing in the middle of summer. I'm ok once I get moving. It's the running about on Saturday mornings in all weathers wearing just my rugby kit that can be quite unpleasant.
Oh that makes sense then . I have Hyperhidrosis sweating more with no reason. So the only time I don't mind the sweat is when running 😊
Im with you there..... I cycled to work today and a tad chilly (North of England) I do get very hot running tho!
