PB with the wind

Have not run for about 2 weeks, just some fast walking. But got out this morning while weather bright, and nearly got head blown off🌀which was invigorating.

Went well, although felt like stopping at about 4k with mind nagging, but managed to go through it and carry on to over 5k, then noticed I had a PB by 1m 30secs! was pleasantly suprised, even though I'd had to stop to wait for traffic so I could cross the road (that would have been another 30 secs off if able to carry on) then walked home uphill over another mile. So a good run had.

Next will be parkrun on Saturday, maybe in the snow? Good time to try out my new trail shoes😉

well done getting out there in this 'orrible weather! I set out not realising it was raining this morning, but then carried on anyway - would have thought that was mad not so long ago!!

Well done!

A little bit of water never hurt anyone, just watch out for any slippy leaves.

Beats being stuck indoors running on a treadmill..😉
