3km in 14.01 today, which is a pace I'm a bit happier with. Don't know why I consistently choose the hotter days.

Cool change coming through tomorrow and for the next week should be less taxing, but then again you're gonna have to warm up extra well to avoid any unfortunate incidents... :-\ The most annoying thing about winter sport.

Awesome. How are you finding the smaller runs?

Easier to keep consistency. Definitely planning to build up distance again, though.

Any updates on the running?
Have you had any success in building up the distance at all, or has the cold winter been a bit of a turn off from running?

Hello, my friend.

I think the last time I went running was the summer of 1942. 🤔

Cold definitely not a motivating factor, and work has been busy. Definitely just excuses, but that's what I'm running (HAHA) with for now.

What's your advice?

Yeah but hot showers after being out in the cold are amazing.

How's it been going? Do you prefer winter runs to summer runs? (Or is being cold just as awful as being hot?)
I started a new "ab cruncher" exercise plan and I am at day six and finally at a point where I can get through the exercises in one go.

The cold is certainly unmotivating. You could go to a gym and use a treadmill, but I think treadmill running is quite mundane. With the cold, you probably just need to get out there and suffer the cold for a little while until you warm up. Its quite nice running in the cold once you've gotten into it.

Definitely the summer, I think!

Yep, you're 100% right.

Now, to actually do that. Haha.
