Got up and ready to go out opened the door took one step out and down came the hailstones. πŸ˜– argh. In I came found waterproof jacket and off I went. My was it cold and windy. But the hail stoped once I was up the hill and it was just blustery and very cold. Met a few other hardy souls ( or idiots🀣🀣) running. Did my usual 20 minutes then home for a nice hot shower and coffee. Happy running πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Oh yes. I remember the pain of hailstones bouncing off my face a few months back. The difference is you chose to go back out there 🀣🀣🀣🀣.

Good for you πŸ‘ Hailstones can hurt sometimes and I’ve often thought that sunglasses would help although it would look a bit odd 😎🀣

Very brave! Well done for going out in such challenging conditions. I bet it warmed you up though. On the rare occasions I’ve run in the freezing cold it’s always warmed me up for the rest of the day. It must get the blood pumping around the body! Happy running Scruff55 πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

I’d mentally decided to go out and was ready. The hailstorm was just a hiccough πŸ€£πŸ€”πŸ€£πŸ€” plus I’m a bit mad about running. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ
