No running today. I simply was scared of getting outside. There are very, very high winds blowing across UK today. The weather service issued high winds and gale advisory, and there were several people killed by falling trees and such. In my area, there was sustained wind of 55 mph with gusts up to 80 mph. My blinds were blowing on windows, and the metal cover in the fireplace was rattling all day from the wind, coming in through some invisible space. Looking out my window, I observed everything flying, lamp posts shaking, and few people outside holding onto fences while walking. I was worried about my daughter, but she made it home from school ok (also holding onto everything she could on the way), and said, "Mom, don't go running today". I already decided not to go at that point. I had another hill workout scheduled, and it would have been just counter productive. So, I took a day off, and will do the workout tomorrow. It's supposed to be much better. |
