Week 6 run 1 - Weather for ducks.

Due to family commitments last night I didn't so for my schedueld run last night, but boy did I wish i had (when it was cold, dark and dry).

Just got back after a wonderful session (when it was cold, dark and wet/raining), but looking like a drowned rat. It's miserible when it's dark and wet - no amount of waterproof clothing would have kept me dry. I think I could havbe done another 3k in a boat.

Also did my 2nd parkrun at the weekend (not counting the runs towards C25K), pleased to report a PB (hark at me !!), and ..................... 5.2K without stopping.

Council and local parkrun are doing a group C25K in Redditch - an amazing 131 people turned up in weather worse than I've just ran in. #inspired

Good luck everyone - Keep running. Don’t let your excuses catch up.

I was busy the other day, but wanted to run. I thought blow it, stuff doing other things, I'm going to get out and run. It was wet but at least I was outside and doing what I wanted to do. I didn't have a very good run but at least I did it, and felt much better with myself for not talking myself out of it. Keep up the momentum Mark and keep trying to run every other day
