Seasonal change

The other day I had commented on how beautiful the weather was for running.  Had I run this morning I would have said the same but I was away early on business so my training happened when I got home.  A sweaty turbo session followed by a run.  The weather was horrendous as I was blown up the hill and squelched my way up the pavement, picking out the puddles with my "davy lamp".  Back home and a core session to finish.
I'm afraid that these are the conditions I will be training in for the next 3-4 months so I'm just going to have to "man up" and get on with it.  As Billy Connolly said, Scotland doesn't have bad weather, you're just wearing the wrong clothes.  So I will make sure I'm wrapped up, get my head down and convince myself that this will make me stronger!
