Think I'm going to be a fair weather slogger ;-)

Week 9 run 1 !! I did it... a full 30mins... very slowly...but who cares...I did it! It was really cold though and I'm a bit of a wuss so I nearly didn't go... maybe I'm going to be a fair weather runner???

Congratulations, well done !

Only 1 hour left to Graduation 😁👍

Hoorah! been a long time since I graduated in anything

[Dodgylungs Graduate]

Well done! I share your disdain of cold and wet weather. However, there is a simple antidote to it: dress for the weather and you need never be cold again. I wear a fleece and a waterproof jacket when running. Today, despite the rain and cold I was actually warm at the end. You smashed it!

[carolinestanford Graduate in reply to Dodgylungs]

will give it a go but I still don't think I will like rain and cold

[Dodgylungs Graduate in reply to carolinestanford]

You’ll get used to it. I think the exhilaration is even stronger when coming back from the cold and wet weather. Fortunately it won’t rain every day.

Ha, yes, my (Scottish) mother always says there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad choice of clothing 😁

Well done Caroline!

I heard that first from Billy Connolly.

"There's no such thing as bad weather — only the wrong clothes."

[acountrycabbage Graduate in reply to nowster]

That makes sense, she’s a Glasgow girl and *loves* Billy ☺️

[mezziejay Graduate]

I haven’t gone out in bad weather yet ...I like it cooler but rain I’m really not planning on getting wet 😂 x

[carolinestanford Graduate in reply to mezziejay]

[cellovsky]

[carolinestanford Graduate in reply to cellovsky]

[VPOLLIE67 Graduate]

Woooohooooo caroline!!! You are amazing!!! Only 2 runs to go 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[carolinestanford Graduate in reply to VPOLLIE67]

I know - but not sure what I will do when its all over I like Sarah and will miss her

[VPOLLIE67 Graduate in reply to carolinestanford]

Seriously feeling the same. There’s a really comfort in having someone else saying ‘you’re doing fabulous’ at that moment when you could just take a wee breather! I think I’m going to be running week 9 for a while lol.

Our graduation group will all just have to keep each other going for week 10 and beyond!!!!

[pete1212 Graduate]

[carolinestanford Graduate in reply to pete1212]

Might as well get used to the weather, there’s a lot to come. In my view there is nothing so nice as coming in from a cold run and then a hot shower,coffee and toast.

Needs a bit of a head shift but we’llworth it 😊
