W3R2 - Brrrrrrrrr!

Not going to lie, getting out of my warm bed at 6am this morning took some doing. It was pretty darn cold out there with frost everywhere! The run felt a bit tough, but I think my legs were still feeling it from last night's spinning class.

Thanks to all for the suggestions on the running belt, I ended up buying one on Amazon and today was my first time using it. It was so comfortable that I forgot I had it on me and had a momentary panic when I walked in the door and suddenly thought 'Oh no! Where's my phone!'. So that's a good result!

Well done, not sure I'd get up on a frosty morning after a spin class - fantastic effort. You are obviously fit. Enjoy your runs

Thanks Grannytobe, not sure I'd call myself fit though! I can handle a spin class, but these runs do take the puff out of me.

Why is the bed warmest and comfiest when you have to get out of it?

It was cold here this morning, but not frosty ❄ but then it was 7.40am when I went out ☺

Well done for getting out there 😁 🏃

Thanks Joanney69! 😁 Yeah, 7:40am is a much better time but still wayyy too early. How some people get up and go running at 5am is beyond me!

I'm thinking 5am might be an option in the summer - before it gets too hot ☺

Mind you, living in Cornwall, it's not often it gets too hot - no harm in hoping 😂
