Well dragged myself out of bed a 6am to get this run done before storm Ali arrives in an hour or two. Can't believe I've ran for 2 x 8 mins. Go me! Time for some fuel then off to work, boo hoo.

Well done! My final run was yesterday in a head wind much of the way. Makes success all the sweeter!

I'm contemplating doing this tomorrow as it's forecast for bad rain in Cumbria from the afternoon but dry at 6am!!! I know it's for the best but I'm so not a morning person!!

Beautiful sunrise with very stormy looking clouds this morning where I am in Central Scotland, not done my rerun of W5R2 as it's now lashing with rain, not windy yet, Well done to you SOULY47 in beating Ali before he comes to your area. I am now waiting for a break in the weather before attempting that rerun.
