I did! Got my early run in this morning. It was hard, only realised it rained during the night when I went outside. It was a relatively “warm” morning. Rain was threatening but I decided to push through. Invested in new running tights, so I wanted to try it out. Good motivation to get a girl running :-).

The morning was perfect. So much oxygen in the air after the night’s rain. I did a 6km run which included hills and I did not even felt that exhausted. So, now I am really motivated. If this is what training in winter is about….its is going to be fun :-). And the tights is great! My muscles felt warm and protected from the elements.  No more excused :-).

Now that I have waisted so much time I had to look for a new training programme. Found a nice programme that actually first focus on building speed and then stamina. Want to give it a try for the next 4 weeks. Still want to improve my 10km time to under 65mins so it might help with that…13 weeks to go!

“Running became the one event in my daily life that I looked forward to. Books and movies paled in comparison to the refuge of my feet slapping patiently in the fresh morning air”. Kate Kinsey
