I awoke this morning to see sunlight streaming through the curtains, and on looking out of the window I saw a hard frost had set in overnight, this meant only one option this morning, off-road. Yes it was cold, but when the sun is shining and the sky is that perfect winter blue how can [...]

Due to how my day was set to pan out today I did my run today before work, at 7.13 to be exact. Now, anyone who was up early will know it was cold this morning. It was -5 when I left my house and -3 when I started the run. This cold weather does [...]

What can you say about today, the sky was blue, the sun shining and yes it was bloody cold. It was a group effort today, me, Joe, KP and Roger and an easy paced run to Rickmansworth and back. The thing about todays run was that it seemed to go on forever, it could have [...]

Well surprise surprise it was cold again today. So it was that Roger, Joe and me set off for a steady 3 miles, there were no encouraging comments today just ones along the lines of “you must be mad” or simply just “why?” Well to all the doubters the answer is simple, it’s because we [...]

Cold, cold, cold. Three words to describe the weather today. However, it was not as cold once outside as I thought it was going to be, no idea why that was, but it was. I was struggling to find anyone to run with today, and at the last minute KP decided he fancied a run. [...]

A bit of mist was around this morning to accompany the cold and so it meant that hat, gloves and jacket were certainly required. Unusually for me, this Sunday I went for a bit of a group run with Joe & Tony. The route was one of Joe’s and the pace was set around the [...]

This morning was nothing much more gentle run round the village. It was a little colder than I thought so I was glad of the hat and gloves. There weren’t many people around today wither in cars or walking round not that that makes much difference to a run but you do tend to notice [...]

The run today was quick, and at the end of a long week wasn’t really what the doctor ordered. The problem is that todays group consisted of someone 11 years younger than me and two others who are 14 years younger, and there-in lies the issue, young guys run too fast for us old ones! [...]

A mass group run today, 5 went out and luckily enough 5 came back. Not a tough run, relaxed pace and whilst 3 of them went along the canal path, Roger and me went through the woods for some variety. It was funny as the other 3 didn’t notice we took a different course it [...]
