Brisk walk?

[Rosebery]

Went out early this morning and did week 5 run 2. It went ok but the 'warm you up walk' was more like a 'freeze your (insert body part of choice) off' walk. The cool down walk was aptly named though.

This made me smile... Yes, the mornings, from now on can get chilly to say the least.. it was not too bad here first thing, round about 7 degrees...

I have not got my gloves out yet...

Well done you... loving those Sunday runs!

I bought a pair of Aldi running gloves yesterday but it will have to be really freezing before I use them - I get warm so quickly and hate all the clutter in winter. But - winter is coming!

😅😅😅😅 , yea it was chilly I was in vest and t shirt as was doing the dreaded 20 min run and knew I'd be hot stuff by the end of it , which I was , huffing and puffing but got there. Actually covered 2.5 k in the 20 min run so my God , freezing 'body part ' so worth it .

Best of luck with run 3 , row with husband helped about something I apparently took the time to hide on him!!!! , when actually he put it away .... So I pounded away and feel great after it 😡😡😡

You soon get used to it! You acclimatise real quick. It's another amazing thing about this running lark, that we harden up weather wise. I seem to run on hot all the time now despite being much thinner than I was. I keep turning the heating off 😊

I do a warm up in the house before turning out for the brisk warm up walk so I am smoking hot before opening the door

Yep, I'm following your advice and starting my warm up in the house these days. Makes a big difference when it's flippin' freezing first thing in the morning. Good tip MissW
