Dragged myself out of bed at about 10:30 this morning (in my defence I didn't go to bed til 1am, or 2am depending which way you look at it!) and decided to go for my run. I'd originally planned to run this evening, but when I looked at the weather forecast I figured I'd try and get my run in before storm Katy hits.
For some reason I found today harder than the first two runs. Might have had something to do with the wind, also the fact that the sun came out about halfway around and I was boiling!
Really pleased I've completed week 1 though. Plan to start week 2 on Tuesday. The big test will be whether I can keep this up once I'm back at work full time (have been running on random days off this week) and much more busy.

Well done for completing week 1. The weather has been pretty crazy today. My first few weeks were dictated by the fact that I had to wait until it was dark (I don't care anymore). I now come in from work, have a cuppa, get changed and go out straight away - before I get distracted. You just need to find about 40 minutes but you'll soon find that you are looking forward to the next one. Good luck with week 2.
I know what you mean about not caring - today was the only time in my three runs so far where I've not been put off running at a particular time by the thought of how many people will be out and see me, and what I look like. The thoughts were still there, but I just kept telling myself I didn't care!
Well done Gj, yeah the weather is something we just have to accommodate and getting the clobber right for it is a bit of an art, but in an attempt to have the right gear, it does often give us the excuse to buy something new to run in!
