Week9Run2 Wind!

Had two rest days after parkrun and was looking forward to today's run. Heaven knows why? I was battling head on or sideways wind most of my usual route and my legs complained most of the way.

Positives are that my breathing seems to be getting better and better and my route is so hilly that when I varied my route the last five minutes on the flat felt almost easy.

Next stop graduation after some Pilates tomorrow. πŸ˜πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Happy running.

Edited to add picture of the kitten who's crashed on my warm legs.

I was fantasizing about a long straight cool run somewhere. Can't quite believe running has become part of my life!

Thanks - can’t wait for the morning! As regards your run, at least you were able to adapt and get through anyway! Good for you! You are sooo going to nail your final run too! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜€β€οΈ

I’ll be out tomorrow morning in the cool it seems. Forecast looks promising for the rest of the week, so we’ll both graduate in lovely cool conditions and none of this sticky humid stuff hopefully!

Let’s do this! πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ‘ŠπŸ‘ŠπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»
