Sometimes 5am is good

It was plus 1° at 5 this morning when I went out and completed wk7 run3. An hour later, when I set off for work, it was minus 1! The last 5 minutes, I ran from lamppost to lamppost. 'Just one more, you'll be fine'. Was so happy to finish, my nose was numb. Week 8 here I come 😊😊

Good to know you survived! I’m about to go out tonight and I’m more scared of the cold than the big run 😊

The cold normally doesn't bother me. I tend to be too hot most of the time (that age). ♨

You are a hardcore runner! Well done on finishing week 7 - look how far you've come! (And look forward to lovely spring/summer morning runs next year - they are the best.)
