Week 3 Run 2

Came home from work early so I thought I would go out for a run. It was cloudy when I left. Just started the first 90s run when the sun came out. Thankfully I was heading into the woods. Its the first time that I have run when it has been so warm. I usually go out first thing in the morning (ie before 7am)or after work (6.30 ish). Typically the sun went in as soon as I got home!!!!

I really struggle with extremes of temperature due to having raynauds but I coped and managed all of the runs without stopping. I feel that I was a bit slower and my heart rate was slightly higher than usual but so what! What counts is it is another run under my belt and I managed it. I do think that I prefer the early morning runs as I really love the sounds of birdsong and I feel energised for the rest of the day. Roll on Saturday for my next run, and yes it will be early.
