If someone had told me 2 months ago that I would set my alarm to get up early to go for a run, I would have thought they were mad, but that’s what I did this morning to try and avoid the storms forecast. It was still dry but the wind was picking up, but not as bad as it is now. I messed up starting Strava so don’t have my time, but I must have been about the same pace as last time as I finished more or less at the same place, despite the gale. Week 9 here I come
