Wet and windy 6k 🤩

I nearly didn’t go out this morning as when I looked out the window the wind and drizzling rain looked a bit ominous- but glad I did.

Just thought I’d see how I get on. Legs were a bit heavy initially but settled down to my comfortable pace after the first 10 minutes. What with dodging the puddles, going the other way around the park - so had a bit of a long uphill section 🥵- and my right ear pod kept falling out - so annoying- I just kept putting one foot in front of the other. It’s was great- not too cold and the rain not too heavy - managed a 6k run to my surprise 😲 in just over 51 mins. I’m very happy with that 🏃🏼‍♀️👍. Happy running - despite the weather issues 💨🏃🏼‍♀️🏃‍♂️🌧

Well done Dreambird 👏🏻👏🏻all credit to you for getting out there and battling the elements to complete 6k, I was going to go out yesterday but the rain was torrential here so I opted for the couch instead 🤫 5k to Couch but only briefly due to the weather 🏃‍♂️☔️
