Weather was terrible today, really windy and wet and my 7mile trail run turned out to be really character building.
Lessons learned from today...
1. My body can only accept gloves when it's cold. I put them on today thinking they would keep me toasty but I ended up overheating after a couple I miles, it was really weird but cooled quickly after I removed them. To be honest with the conditions and the way I was feeling I could of easily turned back.
2. My OMM waterproof is brilliant, it's the first time it's been really tested today and it passed with flying colours. However again I overheated at times and I learned to remove the hood and adjust zips at the right time to regulate body temp.
To be honest towards the end I was weighing up extending the run as I was enjoying it so much despite the conditions. I kept to my planned route.
Steady and slow today!
