Yuk

Ah yes... that "storm". Bert, was it? Or Bob? I forget. 

Well, I made it to my local Parkrun for 09.25 although I was already starting to question my judgement at that stage. Clearly many Parkrunners have better judgement than I do, because less than half the usual number turned up (in spite of the two nearest runs being cancelled). 

It was windy. It was cold. It was snowing (horizontally, from the east). It was truly horrible. 

I got very wet. I got very cold. But I turned up. I started. I finished. 

Highlights? 

The finish line. My hot shower when I got home. My hot porridge after my shower. 

The rest of my day has been in the recovery position - comfortable chair with my feet up. The exception was a trip to the library for coffee, a scone and to borrow some books. 

And the obvious question - why?
