Wind and not mine!!!!!

Wow! No one told me how hard it would be running in this windy weather. I was intending on trying to run for about 6 miles again this morning, but I could only run for 4 as trying to run into the wind was so hard. I could feel it pushing me back and together with the rain not pleasant. Ah well I suppose it was character building!

Happy running all! x

The wind is a challenge, but respect for getting out there! Give yourself a big pat on the back, well done. Think how you will do next run when there is no wind, no stopping you then. 😊

Like your title :) Would have been a lovely exfoliation for the face too into the bargain! Well done battling the elements.

I know. I went out in it yesterday. Headwind all the way on a circular loop. Not sure how that is even possible and it's certainly not fair! Well done on getting out there though.

Well done for getting out there. It's funny how the wind always seems to be in your face - never giving you a push from behind!

Exactly my words when running into the wind, well nearly haha
