-3 Brrrr!!!

this time last year I was just starting out with c25k and was running solely in the gym. Been outdoors now since early summer but never tried a frosty run before.

A little apprehensive so decided to choose a route with no potentially icy tarmac, just kept to leafy dirt paths. Been running wearing a hat for a week or so now but SO glad I put gloves on this morning. OMG, so cold on the warm up walk.

The running was lovely though and all the plants and shrubbery were perfectly frosted, so beautiful and muted. Managed 2.5k and arrived home tingling all over. I’m now hoping it’ll still be frosty for my next run on Saturday !!

Lovely photo.

I’ve never run indoors so weather always s factor. Lucky with the weather at the moment . Reminds me that last I did the course it was a lot wetter and I had to get some waterproof running shoes with better grip in the mud and waterproof socks.

That sounds lovely, it's all tarmac round here so I'm waiting to see if it melts

Good luck with that. Snowing here now, and running in that is definitely beyond my skill set 😂
