Week 3 done

[agirlinwinter]

I did my final run of week 3 in the park this morning, cold and frosty but sunny.

I found it much harder than runs 1 and 2 of week 3. I don’t know why? 🤷‍♀️

I knew it was going to be cold this morning, so I bought myself a long-sleeved running top yesterday. Who am I?!

🤣 that's it now, if you're buying running gear, you have to keep going to the end. It's the law 🤣.

Slow down a little if you're finding it tough. Or maybe you just need an extra rest day?

You're doing well though, keep up the good work!

Oh no 😂😂😂

Yes, you’re right. I will slow down for week 4 run 1. 5 minutes of running. Eeek!

[RunningMigster Graduate in reply to agirlinwinter]

You can do it!

You are def a runner when you find yourself buying running gear....this is a really nice top by the way! Some runs are harder than others, maybe take in a bit more water and start your run a little bit slower so you don’t burn yourself out? Good luck on your next run, you’re doing great

Ha ha thanks! The top is from Marks and Spencer.

Nice top!!! I find it harder when it’s frosty too as the cold air affects my lungs. Well done for getting out there though 👍

[agirlinwinter Graduate in reply to limberlou]

Thanks! I’m asthmatic but it’s wet weather that usually affects me. It was cold this morning though.

Excellent top 👍🏻 be sure to breathe through a buff when it's really cold until your lungs adjust a bit to the cold, makes it feel less hard 👍🏻

[agirlinwinter Graduate in reply to GoGo_JoJo]

Thanks for the great tip. Oh no, more running gear. What’s happening to me? 😂

Nice!, love a long sleeved top with thumb holes 🤩

[agirlinwinter Graduate in reply to Jell6]

It’s lovely - really soft and comfortable. £19.50 from Marks and Spencer 👍

[Jell6 Graduate in reply to agirlinwinter]

I got my running outer top from there, I baulked at the £45, but it was part thinsulate, zipped pockets big enough for my phone, long sleeved with thumb holes and tumble dryable.

It's on the second winter now and still going strong, so I think it was worth the money!

I wear it over a long sleeved base layer, and that's my upper layers done. I have run in -2°C and been pretty toasty once I get going 🥶

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to Jell6]

Ha, I’ve read the other replies now, so now I know where it’s from 👍

[Wenderwoo Graduate]

Well done on completing W3. Loving the top - where’s it from? I love these tops with thumb holes 😁

Looking good 👀🏃‍♀️😁 and very sensible to keep the neck and chest warm.
