It was grey when I left the house but dry. Weather forecast was also in my favour so off I trot to my local park for a 30 min gentle run.
Really soft and wet underfoot so I left the park and headed for the pavement - so far so good. Then, just as I was getting into a rhythm the heavens opened. All well and good if youβve dressed for wet weather and you donβt wear glasses π AND, most importantly, youβre not wearing your sons super expensive Bluetooth headphones π€¦π»ββοΈ.
I lasted for about another couple of mins and then took the headphones off and shoved them down the front of my leggings to try and keep them dry. All good except for the fact that they kept slipping and I was having to hold them in place so my posture was off - I conceded and I ran home π’
I started this running journey on 7 July and I have not given up on a run so far which means that Iβm gutted that my own lack of preparation meant that I had to cut this run short. I only did 2.2k so I am going out again tomorrow but I WILL be better prepared. I really am gutted because it has been wall to wall bright skies here since about half an hour after I got back stretched, showered and got ready for church.
What a pillock π
I n the plus side - the headphones are still working π€
