Run 16/02 - looove the weather!

9 Replies

Hiya,

11°C (feeling like 7), sun and no more icy roads. My run felt as if I was in heaven! This is thé most perfect weather. Ditched the body warmer, cap and gloves. Did still wear my winter running leggings and a fleece long sleeved shirt which I also still needed against a chilly wind. But really, this is thé most perfect running weather 💖

Did have to avoid some serious mudpatches, but luckily that was only on 3 spots. Everywhere else was nice clean running road. Lots of people out of course, which is a bit annoying to run between, certainly in these Covid times. Therefor the icy weather was handy, haha.

Anyhow the weather must have been good for me cus I apparently ran a tad faster (6,6 km/h vs 6,4 km/h) and yet it felt good. Thursday is another 30 min run and Saturday will be my second 45 min run. Can't wait!!

Cheers, Evy

Sounds like it's going well! More than a "tad" faster in my book. It would be over a minute off of your 5k time- There are a lot of us who would be very happy with that.- and that includes people dodging- you're doing better than you give yourself credit for!.

Thanks! My goal is not speed though, I like being a snail. But I guess there are gradations in snailness 😂

The fact that it was comfortable AND faster shows you must be getting stronger and fitter! Even snails need to keep fit .

Well done on a great run! I agree the weather makes such a difference. Lots of mud where I am too - trainers got filthy yesterday. 😀👏🏼

Mud I got too, you should see me jumping at some spots to avoid the deepest mud-spots. I always think, if anyone sees me they will have something to tell their friends. They saw the idiot of Edenpark (the park where I run)!
