Started the day at 04:00, it was a difficult night where my thoughts got the better of me. Easy morning routine with a nice cup of fresh ginger tea helped me to reset a bit.
At 06:30 my kids joined me downstairs and wanted to go outside straight away as there was snow for the first time since februari.
Fun to play around for a bit!
At 07:15 I left the house for a run. While the temperature was 1C , the wind and the rain made it feel considerably colder. Which was fine as I needed the headspace.
Despite the rough night I could really enjoy the weather and the views. The strong wind however was a good wakeup call to have a flexible strategy ready next week as a plan B should KISS pacing should be too difficult due to the weather.
Overal, my run today showed that I am ready for the distance, I ran comfortable at low heartrate (which might be a little surpressed due to the cold), but it was basicly effortless.
The temperature and time also allowed me to run completely alone today no other runners or cyclist around which helps with the feeling of being there close to nature!
Happy running
