Definitely getting a lot colder but when you run you're not long in heating up.

Great you've now completed wk4r1.

Well done you 😊

Well done going out in the cold, the next time you'll know you can do it because you already have. Weve had snow in the garden since Friday so I understand cold running πŸ˜‰

Well done Pete1212. W4 R1 is as far as I've got so far and I had to do a couple of practice runs before I could do that. (I'm currently on a weeks holiday which also includes a holiday from C25K). The only way I can fit running into my days is to get up an hour earlier, go out and get it done before my usual day starts. I get quite hot quite quickly, so am currently preferring the colder weather. As well as jogging bottoms and a T shirt I wear a light waterproof cycling jacket, running gloves and a hat (to start with). My gloves and hat usually come off during my first run (I'm currently at Week 4) and my jacket gets un-zipped to let out the excess heat during the walks (I do partially zip it back up again for the runs, I don't want extra wind resistance!) Whilst I've been out I have seen other runners dressed only in t shirt & shorts, which is OK if you start off running straight away but I want to make sure that my muscles are warmed up after the walk before I start running.

Not what you're looking for?
