Windy wandering

Blimey, w7r2 yesterday was interesting, I tried a new route but went totally the wrong way so ended up being very late back and dashing about desperately trying to get to work on time! The wind made it very tough... I don't understand why but whichever way I run along the seafront it always seems to be into the wind... curse you, weather! Additionally it kept blowing my jacket zip open and the earbuds out of my ears, which I still can't quite figure out. Still managed to speed up at the end though like Laura said and can't wait for the next one!

The wind is very sneaky. So many people report that it changes direction so that it is always blowing in your face. Congrats on the progress.

Wind is always in your face, especially when you are running fast!

My ear buds were forever falling out, even when it wasn't windy! I now wear a sort of head band thing that covers my ears. Keeps them warm and keeps the buds in :)
