First time I’ve cried off because of the weather. The wind is gusting at 50mph and our run is through woodland, high winds and trees aren’t a good combination. If it’s like this tomorrow, I’ll do my speed podcast on the treadmill.

Ive ran once in a 50mph wind and it was so hard but I completed my run which I was pleased about and so exhausted afterwards wouldn't like to run in that wind again I'd rather run in -5 degrees

Well done to you Buddy 34 on running in a 50mph wind, that was hard. Take your pick, to run in a force 9 severe gale or run in a temperature of - 5C. with no wind.

Been out when it was -2 last week. I actually enjoyed it.

I enjoy the cold weather when running as I sweat a lot and my face takes a while to go back to its normal colour😂 so when it's cold it doesn't go as red

High winds and trees are not a good mix. That run will still be waiting for you tomorrow!
