Hi
After not being able to run for almost 2 weeks due to our schedule changing over half term, I was a bit apprehensive to go out for a run today as the voice in my head told me I would have lost some of my fitness. My next dilemma was what to wear as it was only 3 degrees, so didn’t know how many layers to wear?? Settled on two layers and my new running jacket!! Inspired by @Tinytears60 I treated myself to a running specific jacket as I’d been making do with a trespass jacket that was fine but quite restrictive in movement when trying to run 🏃♀️!! Off I set, I decided not to set unrealistic or pressured goals and to try to enjoy and ease back into running. I’m beginning to think that during my last three or four runs, I’ve found the slow running pace everyone talks about. I did hit Spotify as I started but quite soon into the run, the music 🎶 stopped and this made me think of @Burkey46 as I was unintentionally doing some “naked running” as Burkey46 calls it!! Carrying on I began to heat up and was soon at a level when I thought 🥵- I need to take my jacket off. My thoughts quickly turned to Calamity Jane /AKA @Tinytears60 and thought I know I’m overheating but I don’t want to find myself in a similar situation as tripping up and landing at a strangers feet whilst trying to unzip my jacket!! Recalling all these events made me think of you guys whilst I was running and whilst I was running solo and observing all the social distancing rules at the same time I didn’t feel I was running alone, especially as I felt I had a forum to talk to that is more responsive and doesn’t mind and understands “running conversations”!!
