I nearly didn't go out tonight as the wind was quite gusty. However I made myself go as I knew I wouldn't be able to run again until Saturday evening this week. The run was tough and the gusts did stop me in my tracks a couple of times, but I kept going and ran an extra half-mile for the first time ever taking my total to 5.5miles.

Well done! I have to admit running in windy conditions aren't the best. Fantastic achievement pushing through for the extra half mile :-)
