Running in the rain

I have let myself slip recently, going from regular runs 2-3 times a week, got my distance up to just over 8K then….. I don’t know why but it all just dropped off🤷‍♀️

So I’ve gone back to week 4 C25K to get me going again, Sarah Millican is egging me on and I even went out this morning in the rain. Ran a little further after the podcast had finished, 4.87k 10.02km which I know is really slow, but I did it and felt quite satisfied at the end. Onwards to week 5…. Happy 🏃🏼

Nice run for you today Lablove, remember to take all your runs slow and steady, talking about running in the rain, one of the Christmas presents I got was a good pair of running and walking socks and a light waterproof jacket, so now no excuse for me not to go a run if it is raining, have a great running 2022.

Thanks AlMorr, no excuse for either of us!!😁

Well done! Haven't run in 3 weeks and have to get used to new running shoes. So I might do C25K myself again too, despite having run 10 miles 5 weeks ago.

😂 you might find it a bit pedestrian after 10 miles…

That 10 miler was a thorn in my eye. I wanted to reach it and it had to be then and there, because it was nagging at me the whole time. But it's not something I plan to repeat regularly. I prefer 5K and 10K. Nevertheless haven't run in 3 weeks or more and need to get back into it. Feeling a bit down with the winter blues and I think that restarting something like C25K might help me in getting back into it PLUS getting used to my new shoes.

Good luck with the new shoes, I’m sure they will speed you on.
