Wet and windy weekend!

Went running yesterday evening on the seafront with my good friend Bee yesterday, I cycled to her house first in the pouring rain and it was so windy on the seafront at times I could hardly make the bike move forward! The run was great, the wind managed to be on our side most of the way. It's good running with someone else because it makes the pace better - Bee is fitter than I am so I have to work to keep up. We also talk all the way which is a challenge as I'm not used to that! We ran about 2.2 miles in total.

I left my bike at Bee's so today I ran to her house and cycled back. The run down was fine, it's a slope down to the seafront most of the way, and I saw the most amazing sunset, which I just had to stop and take pictures of, even though photos never do it justice. Amazing waves too. I ran a distance of 1.5 miles at a fast jog pace.

The cycle on the way back was crazy - it started raining hard, the wind was driving the rain right into my face and it was very difficult to pedal the bike! By the time I had to cycle up the hill it was a bit better. Think I'm going to have a nice hot bath now to recuperate...
