When it's raining sideways and only a few degrees outside it's not very tempting to go for a run but I find once you get going it's never as bad as it seems from in the house. Enough layers, gloves, etc and you'll be glad you got out.
Funny - I feel that way about cycling, but truly look forward to running in the cold, wet and wild. Always enjoy Hampstead Heath when it’s chucking it down.
Definitely need to make the right clothing decisions though - long tights, waterproof cap, thin shell, etc.
I finally broke the seal on it tonight. Could only manage a sluggish, stopping and starting 8 km. Felt like shit about fifteen minutes into it. Four weeks off was too much. No idea how I'll get back up to strength in time for my first half marathon in March.
I haven't run since January 2nd. Sickness and shit weather eradicating my motivation. Any tips to get myself back into it?
