Started off great with 1st half mile in under 5 mins and feeling good, then I turned the corner straight into a head wind. Didn't take long to slow down and the extra effort started my coughing. Phlegm lined throat (sorry!) made me splatter and I had to stop and walk for a bit.

A tad disappointed after yesterdays great run.

Today I used my GPS and I think that the route measuring via Tracklogs yesterday was a tad inaccurate (say 0.2m). If I had todays run yesterday I would have been happy, but because yesterday was good today fel bad! Does that make sense?

Oh and the snot monster is back!

well done for getting out there Pix
it's hard work getting fitness back again isn't it? I'm struggling at the moment -thoug I of course blame it on the weather today :-)

Thanks Fraggle. Yes it is very hard and yesterday's good run made it worse today as it seemed even slower (I know it was but that wind ...)

weather reports say the wind is between 30 and 43 MPH which is why it was so hard, so not soooo bad!
