5.08K Flat Run

#24 – 50 runs in 100 days – No excuses edition

You have not heard from me in a while because I ran into a cold a couple of weeks ago.

I was fine after one week but then I had this stubborn cough that did not want to go away.

One issue that I have in the spring is that I can get it prior to my spring allergy and then the cough could be a allergy cough but it is tough to know, I have learned the hard way not to exercise when I have a cold cough.

Lately I have ”crawled on the walls” so since it has itched in my eyes I decided to go out for a run today, even if it was a short run it was lovely to be back.

Since I did not want to run into another cold I put on a lot of clothes, winter tights, long sleeve, fleece and windstopper, warm hat and gloves. During the run the hat and gloves were removed

12.65K Flat Run

#23 – 50 runs in 100 days – No excuses edition

I have decided that even if this commuting means longer days that my exercising is not going to suffer. So after work I went out for a run. Mandatory reflective vest and headlight.

Even if it was colder it was not raw cold.

Saturday I had issues with my heart rate, went above 140 during my warm up but tonite it felt like normal. I have managed to get to bed earlier this week.

An interesting thing happened, someone was out with her pig 🙂 I have heard that pigs can be pets but do not know anyone who has a pig as a pet.

Nice to get out for a run even if it was later.  Twice I had to pass horses. I am not afraid of horses but I do not want to get kicked by one but nothing happened.
