Maintenance Run day whatever it is?

Got out today after the warm up walk with the dogs and ran 4.5 miles. Decided after last weeks maintenance run I would wear joggers as did not like how cold it got last west early evening what happens this week I start to melt as it was still rather warm got a run. Found it hard going again this week fitbit said I was running at 68% peak I wasn’t sure about that. Working from home although a keyworker and will have to go out at some stage has buggered all the regular walking round office as now it’s spent between up and downstairs and a daily dog walk at the end of the day. Well can still manage a run but does seem hard work. Hope everyone is staying healthy and hopefully this was another vaccine for the Running World Cup. Stay fit and healthy everyone.

Tricky time of year for knowing what to wear! I would always prefer to be too cold than too hot, so I have even got the shorts out!

Had shorts for two previous runs and felt really cold so decided as was running around same time would wear joggers however it was warmer tonight. Oh well it’s the time of year to juggle the clothing. Stay safe.

I was caught out too, had to take it nice and easy so I didn't cook. There's been a biting wind this week which disappeared yesterday. It was a lovely day though!

Yes we had a wind for last two or three walks but didn’t appear to be one yesterday maybe that’s why it felt so cold on previous runs as we have had a regular breeze.
