Very Very Tough Prom Loop

Went out tonight to do my prom loop as its been a week since my first and last run of the year ( :-> ).

The wind was unbelieveable and typically into my face as I went along the prom towards the new lifeboat station. I dont remember it being this strong ever on previous runs.

Going was very slow and at one point I felt like stopping but didn't!!

I was totally shattered by the turnaround point and plodded back home.

Very tired afterwards and could feel it in my legs a little.

I timed it this time and it didnt surprise me at what it was:

Start Time: 19:30
Duration: Just under 27 mins
Avg Speed: 10.75 kph / 6.68 mph

At least I am sure I can improve on this !!!!!!

2008 Here we come!!

Hello again!!

I have started my running again for 2008.

Went out last night in the horrible wind and slight drizzle. I had the wind behind me going down the prom but did not want to face it on the way back so cut through Queens park and then back through the houses and down School Lane then onto Park road and back home.

I took it easy and didnt bother to time as I wanted to just get going again without any pressure.

Lets see how things go (need to get rid of some of this Christmas weight).
