So just finished w6r1 in a very strong south easterly that have me ear ache despite my woolly hat. I found it really hard but finished it even so. And the bay looked stunning today.

Where is that? It's stunning. I'm very jealous of anyone who gets to run by the sea! Bit of a downer with the earache but yay run 1 under your belt!😊😊

Thanks! It's Weymouth. Yes very lucky to live in such a gorgeous place but those coastal winds can be brutal!

Oh my god I think I might hate you now annie1970 ! 😂😂My favourite place to run! Went on holiday there last autumn and stayed in Preston. Had some of my best runs down and along the beach and along the Rodwell trail. I am green with envy😊😊😊

The wind has been absolutely brutal here today in South Manchester. So I dread to think what it mustve been like along the coast - Eeek !

You are made of strong stuff Annie, if you can run in that, you can run in anything .Well done for today and your progress so far ! :-) xxx

Wind is blummin annoying but goes with the territory. I nearly always wear a buff round my earoles as I suffer ear trouble. Not just during cold weather. Does help keep you warm though and lets the hot air escape through the top of your head 😀

I think W6R1 was one of the hardest so well done and don't get blown away! R2 should be easier :-)
