Running postponed due to bad weather!

Having run in rain, snow and freezing temperatures, gale force wind was just too much! I planned to get up early and fit a run in before work, but couldn't even stand up in the strong wind never mind run! Will try again tomorrow evening!

Snap! I woke up at 5am, heard the wind howling outside, promptly changed my alarm clock and went back to sleep. I was going to run the 5k+ speed podcast today but it seemed pretty self-defeating to try it in a gale.

Tomorrow is another day.

Oh I'm with you! I too gave up even attempting my run. Now sitting watching Masterchef and beating myself up especially as the wind has now dropped totally but I have eaten far too much to contemplate running. Oh well next run Saturday and its going to be a lovely day! :)

I know what you mean. I did go out in it yesterday - briefly - and I'll swear that at one point I was running backwards :D
