Blown away (nearly!)

Just got back from a rather tough 10k morning run with my new running buddy - the lovely Sam :) We spent the first two miles running straight into the (very strong) wind which resulted in us feeling like we were running on the spot at times! It's really hard to get your breath and feeling like you're being pushed back the whole time makes it all the more difficult, but when you turn the corner and get out of the wind you feel like a champion, as though running is suddenly effortless and you're just gliding along! Well that is until you come to a nice big hill or something! Anyway, despite the wind trying to sabotage our efforts we battled through and still made it around in decent time. Time for a nice cup of tea now I think! Seems like a strange thing to have when you come back in boiling hot but I do look forward to a lovely brew when all the hard work is over!
