The week so far

Monday:-the weather was lovely, I wanted to go for a run, the legs said NO
Tuesday:-the weather was nice then cloudy then nice, I ran a ‘steady’ 4 mile during the cloudy part, with every part of my body hurting.
Wednesday:-the weather was drizzly, I did not really want to go out it in, and then I got a text that the Women on the Run leaders were ill and the normal club would not be held, instead a group were meeting as usual for a run. I was very tempted to stay in, but bit the bullet and went and joined them for a laughter and chat filled run.
Thursday:-the weather was horrendous, all day it has rained, I’m talking biblical proportions. I had to run, the training plan said so. As it was Harriers night for madam I left her to run around the track in the rain whilst I ran around the car park in the rain. No ordinary rain was this, no it was lashing, driving, skin hurting rain, coupled with wind. I did Chrissie Wellington’s audio fuel workout, she kept telling me to run happy with passion! Well I had a few choice words to say to her about that I can tell you, no passion, no happiness in those conditions no not at all. By the end I was drenched and cold and not for the first time contemplated my sanity! Madam came out looking exactly like a drowned rat, but a happy one, you see that is the difference between children and adults, they just don’t care about the weather.
