Running

Out for 5 km at 1800.

You know what? I like running in the rain, but in the freezing cold rain? Not so much :(

Freezing cold rain? No, not good. But you still went anyway? Good on ya!

I went running tonite too! Around the same time. Although did not have freezing cold rain (or else I woudn't have gone). It was a beautiful clear night with an almost full moon, around 30 F. I'm not sure how far I went, there is a section of the neighborhood I like to go that has hilly streets, and I alternate walking and running up them.

It was actually a little bit warmer here than where you are, but once the rain started... not pleasant :(

I don't have hills here where I usually run (the biggest hill I run over regularly is a railway bridge!). Instead we have wind - strong and unrelenting winds off the Fens that have nothing to impede them until they cut right through you. Around here we say that if you're running or cycling you don't need to worry about the lack of hill training, you just head straight into a Fen wind and it has the same effect on the intensity of your exercise...
