Not feeling the love tonight.

Tough run tonight, very windy and my route in the dark is tree lined, so was dodging broken bits of twig and debris. I think I'd got it in my head that tonight was going to be rubbish before I even started, probably not helped by too much crusty bread and pate for lunch while we wrapped Xmas presents. Anyway made it to 30 minutes by the skin of my teeth but had to do the warm down walk on the cross trainer at home. Focusing on a better Friday. Keep running everyone

I must admit that I have chickened out of my run tonight due to the weather - windy and driving rain, although I am still feeling guilty about it. We'll done you for just going out, let alone completing the full 30 minsI

At least you did it! Well done for that. I expect the weather will throw a few challenges at us over the next few weeks!

Well done for running anyway, it's done now. I can sympathise with the debris and branches on dark pavements, you have to take extra care not to turn ankles or get thwacked in the face.

Great that you got out there - it may not have felt like the best run but you completed it, and did it in weather that stopped lots of us getting out. Well done!

Definitely well done! I'm dithering about going out today, it's not very nice out there today.

You were out there doing it, and not many can say that. I know I wasn't out last night (I ran in the morning).

I am seriously impressed with anyone who was out last night if the conditions were even remotely like they were here.

You should be very, very proud of yourself.

A huge WELL DONE! I too chickened out because of the driving wind - I hate it! I felt guilty having decided to shop and deliver Christmas cards instead, especially when I saw a person all togged up and running along the road that I should have been running on! It's so great that you got out there and did it. :)
