Didn't find it too bad at all. Have to constantly tell myself that I need to be a tortoise and NOT a hare and it seems to work. Nice and cool with the early sun shining, beautiful.

Can't breathe through my nose as don't get enough air so will just stick with the mouth and hope I don't swallow any large flies! :O

Onwards and upwards! :) :)

I have to breathe through my mouth too. Just treat the swallowed flies as bonus protein :-D Happy running :-)

Well done! I always breathe through my mouth: I get into a panic if I try breathing through my nose! Enjoy the rest of week 5!

I sometimes breathe through my nose as it slows me down thinking how to achieve it without suffocating! Well done you... another one under your belt and it sounded like a lovely run too :)

Well done! Breathing through the nose takes air deeper into the lungs, it's also beneficial in really cold weather, but, just do what's best for you, lot's of us breathe through the mouth, it takes in more air, I do, also some through the nose, as for flies try and be mindful and try closing your mouth a tad, and in time I think you'll find your more comfy with it..
