One more run to go!

I've just completed W9R2. I can't believe that I've nearly made it to the end and running 4.3km in 30 minutes. I'm looking forward to 'graduating' later this week.

I'm a bit of a fair weather runner and am fortunate to be able to run when I like, so I plan my run days and times by the weather forecast. It was lovely today, cool - breezy and sunny - I'm not sure I'm looking forward to running in the summer - it's perfect at around 6 - 8⁰c.

Great job... and you’re right, the perfect temperature for distance running is 45F which is right in that 6-8C window... which is why marathons are spring and autumn mainly. You’ll be so much fitter by the summer though, so don’t over worry about it.

Here's hoping! I'm looking forward to consolidating and hopefully beginning to find it a bit less hard going.
