β€’6 Replies

Went out in the pouring rain,the cold & the wind...these things are not a problem...but I struggled!!!I did finish but wanted to stop virtually all the way round!!!I have a sneaky suspicion that I may be coming down with something πŸ˜• now I am not feeling at all confident about a 28 minute run coming next run!!!πŸ˜•

Once again I find you are out in the thick of it while I am cowering indoors waiting for a break in the weather. Fair play to you!

My mum would have been convinced you were going to catch a "chill" by going out in this weather, but then she did think people should wait an hour after washing their hair before leaving the house.

Good on you for going out in it! I almost went back indoors last night when I found it was drizzling, so I find your determination inspiring!

28 mins? It's only 3 mins more than you've been doing this week. No problem :)

Ah thankyou 😊 i dont really mind it too much...i weigh up the annoyance of getting wet for 40 minutes or the annoyance of knowing i didn't go & get it done.i know which one wins out of that little contest πŸ˜‰

You get good runs and bad runs. I can go out one day and feel like I am floating on air, and do the same run two days later and struggle immensely.

You are doing well. Get used to that fact that you will have off days, but stay on programme. A day or twos rest and you will smash it.

Thankyou 😊
