🍏When the wind blows away the cobwebs

🍏 I awoke to pouring rain & icy cold winds coming from the snow clad Rocky Mountains. I turned over in bed for some extra sleep, ignoring my running kit winking at me!

I am so glad I did for a little later in the morning out came the sunshine, dried up all the rain, inch wincy Spider… well Annieapple ran again! 🤣

Achieved my goal this week of a longer run of 40 enjoyable min with Coach B. He was talking to Jane Wake about running in pregnancy. Very interesting! I am a volunteer Parish Nurse so found this very insightful information to pass on to others. Once again running gave me an unexpected gift! 💝

The gift that keeps on giving indeed... !

Brrrrr...no wonder you turned over and slept... well done on getting out later though... a sweeter, sunnier run :)

I’m starting to be at peace with putting off a run if the weather is inclement. Because early morning is my preferred time I always feel a bit of cheat if I dip out but on Monday I did and had a much nicer run later in the day.

I’ve got a coach B run lined up for my next one. I do have a bit of a crush on him. 😍

Love hearing about your runs from over there. A storm is coming here .. might have to batten down the hatches for a wee while 💨

Another super run. It’s cold here but I can only imagine what it’s like with you! Enjoy but wrap up warm!!!

Coach B is great. I love how the guided runs cover such a range of topics. Glad that was a useful one for you! ❤️

The best things come to those who wait, I'm sure the extra hours of rest helped too!

Enjoy your holiday! It sounds fantastic.

Waiting was a good idea. It must be a beautiful place to run! Have you done the Nose Hill parkrun in Calgary?

🍏 I have walked it many a time with the family but never done the parkrun! A challenge that still awaits me🤣
