Description from Strava:
The weather just keeps on changing. Yesterday was really windy and this morning it was raining. It was pretty cold out there too, but I needed to get a run done.

The roadworks near us are causing chaos with long queues at the lights. Luckily that does not affect me as I do not tend to drive during the week. I just headed up for my usual loop of Fairfield. As I ran up the hill there was some snow coming down at times, but it was not going to settle. Although some may think I am crazy to run in these conditions I do not get too cold when I am running and I know I will not be out very long, so it is not a problem. I just try to keep going.

My legs were tired from my long run on Sunday, but this one was not too bad. There were a few people out walking their dogs or heading off to school or work. They were all bundled up in their coats. I think I saw one or two runners. There was not much wildlife to be seen.

I was glad when I started back down the hill. My tired legs managed to keep moving and I was not going to break any records, but I did get another 'local legend' status on Strava.

Podcast listening was from Drumeo and Radiolab.

When I got near home I could see how long the traffic queue was for the lights. It does not help that we have so many cars parked on the street, so there is a risk of gridlock. I just wanted to get in and warm up. My feet were wet and so was my hair, so I needed to dry myself before breakfast. I am fine now and the weather is looking better too.

Have a good day and run free.
