And I thought it was just the wind..

Phew, that was hard work! Much of my run just now was into the wind = hard work.

But on checking mapmyrun back home, I was also doing my quickest run! But I'm gutted I didn't quite get to the 5k - I had to change my run a little due to it being 'normal' hours - the supermarket being open so the car park being busy and all - not really suitable for running - so I wasn't sure of the distance I would run, but hoped it would be 5k. But sadly not otherwise I was definitely on target to do it <35 mins which is my current target.

Hope you all have a great weekend. I'm off marshalling for a fundraiser for our local hospice - it's a neon 5k walk in the woods - should be a great event.

You would have made that target no doubt!! Sounds like it will be good, enjoy your day and please let us know how marshalling went

It was great fun - if a little chilly come the end. Lots of people wearing lots of neon xx

Oh, so close !...and a lovely even pace. Next time you'll nail it. Well done.

Does your garmin tell you the wind speed? Mine does and it's quite helpful I think. After the event that is. I say "oooooh, I knew it was windy" When you have to run face first into a gale you know it's slowing you down. When you run the same route and it's calm then you know you should be looking at a better time

Those splits are good!!! Flippin eck! You are kicking some serious butt there

Thanks - that will hopefully be my next post ! xx

Ah thanks, I never know what's good really.

I don't have one of those Garmin watches - I just use the mapmy app on my phone - but my birthday next year is the big 5 0 so I was going to ask hubby for one then. By then I would have been running for well over a year, through all seasons, so I know I'll def be sticking with it!

Have a great Sunday xx
