Week 2 Run 2

β€’13 Replies

So dilemma was on my shoulders tonight. I had planned 2 rest days due to the tight calf but with the snow on route It was going to be push and go to weather I would even get this run in over the next few days.

So with light snow falling and temperature below freezing I wrapped up and decided to do the run tonight.

I am currently feeling so proud firstly I felt great breathing under control and muscles not hurting.

Secondly I have proven to myself I'm no longer a fair weather (in very distant term) athlete...lol..

I wish you all a safe few day enjoy the snow.
