Well done. All my runs have been in the dark as I simply can't do the morning thing. I'm quite enjoying it and cold but I really do need to invest in a pair of gloves.

in reply to DeterminedBear

Oh yes definately!!!cold hands are not fun!!!

I'm all about the fingerless gloves. Warm enough to prevent fingers going numb and then that bit smaller for stuffing in my pockets after the first 5/10 minutes when they're up to temp. :)

Not far to go now, Claire! I prefer night running. I find it easier for some reason. Maybe I'ma vampire.

We need to start a vampire club - I was surprised how much in the minority we seem to be... :O

Yay to trying a run in the dark - I'm still to do the opposite, run in the light! :D Glad you liked it and roll on Week 9. You're unstoppable! ;)
