W8R1 windy but good!

I didn’t feel like going out tonight after a long day working, doing my parents weekly shopping, and the windy weather.

But my young running buddy (now cycling) persuaded me to still go out and I am so glad he did.

I had a really good run despite the wind being against us but I really missed Jo telling me there were 60 seconds left I’d been hanging on to give it one last push!

Yes, I thought the same! Was going to have a final sprint. But must admit I was glad to finish as it was both windy and hot.

Well done. Hopefully better weather for our next runs. So glad I didn’t put off till today. It’s even worse just now!
