WINDSWEPT BUT STILL RUNNING

5 Replies

Well I managed run 2 of week 8 today on a very wet and windswept promenade!  I am visiting my home town of Aberystwyth for the weekend so it was a lovely change of scenery...and a big dose of sea air always makes me feel better. :-D :-D

In this wind it was probably more than a dose :-) Great to be able to run by the seaside though and the promenade at Aberystwyth, if I remember rightly, is certainly long enough to get a good run in!

Well done !  A good run on the sea front will blast away those cobwebs. You'll sleep well tonight!  The windy conditions do make running somewhat tricky but you did it and can look forward to the next one, hopefully when it won't be as windy

Running into the wind is good training! How come whichever way you run, it's always into the wind though?
