Did anyone in the UK go running in the aftermath of this hurricane! I went last night It was quite fun!

Heading into the wind felt like I was on a treadmill, I think I nearly took off at one point :D

    My intervals along the river Tay were awesome, and a tailwind to help me home!

    Not running but I tried cycling. Need less to say I didn't get far.

    I went power walking but with the tailwind I ended up jogging just to keep up!! Great fun :laugh:

    I went out for a walk at lunchtime yesterday and I felt so invigorated by the wind! I felt like I could have run it instead! Glad I didn't though, as my hams and quads are grumbling today after yesterday's gym session and walk.
  • I ran out from Charnock Richard services on the M6 in Lancashire!! Very windy but kind of invigorating!! On the Cumbria coast now, different story altogether. I WON'T BE RUNNING!!!

    We walked in it yesterday - it was great. I don't think I could have run - not fit enough. But it did feel cool wandering out there buffeted by the wind. Our dogs thought it was fantastic too. Many vertical jack russel bounces!
