Has everyone else just carried on or wussed out like me? I'm hoping to run tonight as the rain has pretty much stopped but my running partner isn't home yet.

Where I live we had lots of rain last week and I went out my usual running days Mon, wed and fri. As if I didn't go out because of the weather I wouldn't run much at all😊😊

Rain, what rain?!?, I come from the West of Scotland, the island of Tiree on the west coast has been the sunniest and driest place in the UK this week.

I know you like rain and I don't mind the odd shower but we have had floods and I must admit I returned to the couch 😳 I have just completed W9R1, graduation feels in sight!

I’m hoping to attend my 1st (n W8R2) - think it’ll be a good starting benchmark to work on over time 😎
