Weather forecast for 21degrees today,

So off I set with just my vest top no underlayers, no gloves..

at last Spring has sprung, sun is shining 🌞

Brrrrr gets out the front door and the cold caught my breath..ooft

I thought go back in layer up..nah..it will warm up?

Ooh no definitely not Summer just yet..hands were nipping all way around.. my legs were not having it today.. first K (of my not so sure yet how many K's)

Was well over 8mins😯

Just wasn't feeling it today, seemed tough.. so decision was made.. 5k will have to do today.. gets on the road home and power returned to my legs somehow and I managed a personal fastest last K on the last one 👍😆

I nearly turned back to do another few K's but decided..that can wait till mid week run 😆

Home showered and the promise of that 21 degrees just may be happening 🌞🍦🙏

Hi Caroline, at least you got out there, even if not feeling it today. 👏I'm like you, nippy to start, but warm up so quickly, cant be doing with undressing on route 🤣 so usualy tough it out. Running in this warm weather, is all new to me! 🥵

Definitely a little fresh first thing here, but I ran the first km with the sun on my back and it was gorgeous. Well done for your fastest kilometre! Always a huge lift if that happens. 👏👏👏👍
