You know you’re addicted to running when you go out in that!

Couldn’t do Parkrun this weekend and that felt weird and Sunday had been designated long run day. Oh my goodness that wind woke me up all night and I did the “you’re mad going out in that, it’s not safe” v “it’s run day, get out” battle in my head. Quick look at the forecast and it was due to get worse. So compromised with myself and said I could just do 30 minutes. I’m sure at one point I wasn’t actually going anywhere the gusts were that strong and then at others they pushed me along. Weird sensation. So glad I went when I did as the weather got so much worse - not seen rain like that for a long time. Now just the 39 minute run to “fit in” this week. So looking forward to lighter evenings. Happy safe running peeps
