Based on the temperature forecast for this morning, I had decided last night that I wouldn’t run. But when it came to it, the lure of a perfectly clear, if pre-dawn, sky was too much for me to pass up.
There certainly was a heavy frost, but I’m guessing the humidity was low as the cold really wasn’t pervasive… and not all the mud & puddles were frozen. Once I got off the slippery pavements, it was a GLORIOUS morning for a run!
Half way round I stopped for three of four minutes to chat with the Best brothers of Middleton Farm Shop without even starting to feel cold.
The route was the same 5.2 miles as last Friday and I managed it in 48 minutes. Bearing in mind that I had stopped to chat within this time-frame, I was actually on top form!
