Well that was one slow, very slow run battling all the elements. After changing my plan yesterday from 10miles to 5k due to huge amounts of rain and gusting wind, I set off in the rain with much less wind this morning however for much of the 1st 8k the tow path was water logged and muddy thank goodness I’ve being doing yoga the leg stand came in very handy for balance this morning. The final 8k all road running against a powerful wind. So forget the time, I did a superb workout for stamina training to take me on to HUHM in a few weeks!

Roll on lovely spring weather, happy running everyone 🏃🏻‍♀️🧘‍♀️🤣

I ran today again in > 45 kmph gusts, it felt more like resistance training than running, but I dare say it will be good for me 🤪Well done doing 8 km in it🏅
