Last run of C25K in sight! (Hopefully this Friday)

I'm hoping the weather sorts itself out for Friday, as that's when I'm intending to get my last run of the programme completed - and then I might hide inside until the spring!

I had an horrendous run in the wind and rain at 6:30am today, but couldn't put it off any longer, having already copped out because of the weather on Monday and Tuesday. It was a struggle, not gonna lie. I was absolutely drenched, and I felt exhusted and like never running again.

I started C25K at the end of August, when the weather was pretty good, the mornings were light and I could enjoy being outside. Oh, how times have changed!

I had the best of intentions of continuing running after C25K - joined all the groups and looked at the plans for consolidating and improving - but now I just want to graduate and never look back! I think I might be a fair weather runner 😬

Anyway, hopefully Friday will be a nice morning with a bit of sunshine and no rain, so that I can enjoy my last run, and hopefully it will give me the impetus I need to continue.
