Out this morning, wet and windy - though rain had stopped when I started my run. Went to a park in a nearby town - it's a large park, set on a hill so I stayed at the top end of it. All kitted out in my leggings from Prague, windproof jacket that I found cheapish in Italy, my buff (bought in France), feeling quite cosmopolitan really! Anyway the wind was quite strong so I struggled running back into it so ran for just 20 to 25 minutes. But - a few months ago I would not even have gone out for a walk on such a day - progress measured in steps like these!
