Put off by the wind

I just went to attempt my next long run but gave up under 1k in 😔

It took me ages to leave the house due to losing various items and once I got out the door I was not happy to be greeted by this strong wind! 💨

I set off, and got to my main jogging spot which is hilly, and midway up a hill a massive gust of wind came at me and I just thought f this! so stopped, turned around and walked home.

This hasn’t happened to me before so feeling deflated.. guess I’ll try again tomorrow..? I really hate wind! 😩

I'd have done exactly the same. It's supposed to be fun. When the fun stops, stop! :-) It'll be better tomorrow .......

Best of luck!

That makes me feel better, thanks 😊 Haha! I think I’ll go for a flat route if it’s still windy.. I can’t do the hills + wind combination!
