Let's just say today was definitely a stay indoors day because there was a red alert severe gales warning in place with gusts of wind recorded at 104mph in the Edinburgh area. It was causing the closure of motorways and bridges. Houses were being damaged, trees blown over and lorries getting blown over.
In the interest of my own safety I decided to wait until later in the day to go for my run because the forecast said the winds were to die down and by 8pm they had and it was time to don the trainers and go go go before the storms returned. I really didn't want to go running tonight because my body felt heavy and lethargic since I'd been sitting about in a nice warm house watching the telly. I forced myself out the door after a boot up the back side from the wife and did the minimum distance tonight. I even talked the wife into picking me up after 5k. What would I do without the support of my lovely wife xxx
The details of my run can be found at Day 59/365 challenge
