Who needs ankle weights. Just run in the rain 😂🤣😂 First time out in the rain. Didn't want to miss today, as I would worry I'd then start making excuses for not going out. Been there before you see. Strangely quite enjoyable. Puddles above my ankles didn't stop me, but did need to go back on myself when I decided it was a bit too slippy. Quite pleases with myself today. The sun has even come out on my return so i can have a cuppa and banana in the garden to finish off.😁

Well done for not using the weather as an excuse but also well done for being sensible and turning back when it all got a bit too much. Week 9 already - got to stay off the Injury Couch now you're so close to graduation!
