Didn't run this morning as woke up late and it's horrible rain here now. Can't face getting wet twice today. Will have to make myself go tomorrow. Can't believe I'm bothered about not running. Guess an extra day off won't matter. As long as it's only 1 extra day. Worried about loosing motivation.

Hi Tippyrun

Are you not able to run this evening? I have to admit the thought of running in the rain was totally abhorrent to me, but having restarted C25k on Monday i got caught in driving rain and a brief hailstorm. And it wasn't that bad :) i briefly thought wtf am i doing this for, but soon had to focus on the act of running and didn't really notice the rain after that.

So i say go for it. Don't worry about the weather, you will feel so good about yourself once you have completed and got back home.

happy running x

I managed to change my plans. Did rain a bit. W4 R4. Quite tough. Hadn't realised into wind uphill would be such a struggle, my legs ache. No idea the wind had such an impact. Think I'm enjoying this. Glad I did it though. 😁

Well done you - wind can be a nightmare...😳. I think it’s the β€˜glad I did it’ bit, that somehow keeps hauling us through...!!

It must have been tough. My legs really ache today. Never really ached before. Not sure I'll manage tomorrow. It has to be done by 7:30 am before orchestra/trampolining/library group. Guessing I can have quick snooze in concert as long as there's no snoring. 😴
