3 Miles Up and Down the Blustery Road.


Winter is coming early this year by the looks of things.  We've already begun putting down fires and it's starting to darken a good deal earlier.  The rain lashes and the wind howls - they love each other really though....  I stepped out into the wild this evening for a short 3 mile run up an down the road.  The past few weeks have been slightly slow for me on the running front, so I took this evening nice and slow.  There won't be a Dublin Marathon for me this year, unfortunately, but the big aim is to finish the 'run a month' adventure with a half marathon in the beautiful city of Waterford... breaking my half record and enjoying some pre-Christmas bevvies - now wouldn't that be nice!

  3. The photo shows that you ran on a cloudy evening.

    I'm sure you'll do a good training for the half marathon. You'll reach your goal

  4. On blustery, rainy runs there's one golden rule:
    Focus, focus, focus. Focus on pre Christmas bevvies.

  5. Well done for braving the wind and rain to get some training done. Come Waterford you'll have earned those pre-Christmas bevvies. Cheers!
