A run of 2 halves and 3 parts!

[Bruch1]

After two weeks away and 6 lovely coastal trail runs I layered up this morning ready for Parkrun. 3° was rather less than I've been used to recently, 23 has been the norm 😂. I got halfway to the venue when the sleet came down and I just thought Why am I doing this? So I turned round and came back home. Mr B was on his stationary bike in the garage so I joined him there on the treadmill. I was going to do 30 minutes but after 15 I was bored and in a mad moment decided to finish the run outside! I needed the fresh air and boy was it fresh - and pouring with very cold sleety rain! I managed another 2k with Coach Cory and arrived home soaked to the skin, literally, in spite of the layers and waterproof (ish) jacket! However, after a shower and a coffee I felt so good both physically and mentally and it has set me up for the weekend and the coming week which is going to be quite hectic. Hopefully I'll make it to Parkrun next week 🤞 Of course now the rain has stopped and it's a sunny afternoon!!! Sod's law 😂

🍏👏🎈Good for you!! There is just something about running out in the elements that’s indescribable! It’s even better when you are home and dry! 🤣

Well, that was a run! Out of the heat and into the freezer... then in and then out!

Weather is weather and reading this has hardened my resolve to head out, in freezing fog... again!

HUGE well done to you...and so good you had a great holiday.... ready for the week !

I ran in icy cold rain on Saturday - so cold it gave me a headache. But when I got home I jumped into a lovely hot shower and afterwards I felt fab. I love that feeling - it's so energising.
