Set of in the rain ☔️ with cold wind 💨 blowing in my face, hat on but no gloves, 5 minutes on I was wishing I had put them on but halfway through I was glad I hadn’t because I was properly warmed up by then. 28 minutes went in a flash. Did have to take my glasses 👓 off halfway round as I couldn’t see due to rain. Can’t believe it 4 more runs 🏃‍♀️ and I’ll graduate and to think 8 weeks ago I could barely run 1 minute. What an amazing program.

Well done you, graduation beckons

It sure is! Well done.

Start off with gloves on and you can stash em if you want once you’re warmed up

A running cap would be handy to keep the rain off your specs My cap fits over my Buff which I fold into a headband to cover my ears

If you get cold and wet you’ll get fed up

Good luck with your remaining runs. Not long now 👍🙂

Keep hearing about wearing a "buff" what is that? I'm probably a bit thick.

I found that a pair of driving gloves is perfect for me.

Finger tips get -and stay- coldest but dgs protect them while the rest of my hands stay well ventilated

Plus - they are nice and low key. I had some gloves that made me look like the Boston Strangler lol.

Buff is a runner's friend! Get one! The Buff UK site is down at the mo but do go there and have a look for running Buffs. It's a tube of material that you use as a hat, headband etc. It can be used in about 13 different ways I think. They have a little video clip there to show you how to form your buff into the various shapes. I use mine folded into a headband to cover my ears and keep my earplugs in place They are sweat wicking so you stay dry and warm. You can twist it into a beanie as well if you want full head cover.

i got mine free when I joined our local jog club
