The end of winter running?

Stepped out today as usual in my winter long sleeves and gloves ready for my Sunday long(ish)! New Delhi (half) Marathon is next week and thought would get a comfortable run!

I had all these ‘winter runs’ layered up and wondered the transition to running in a singlet on a race day even having the last hard workout in winter gear! But the weather was surprisingly warm today! Usually i would feel the transition to cold/hot easily. But, this came as a surprise!

So, time to layer down back to ‘early morning’ runs!

Winter has spoilt me in terms of the run start timings! Once a 5am runner, my runs this winter has been post-7am! Didn’t want to get involved in any run in darkness! Also, most of my runs this season were also on trails!

And today’s run was also on trails – our beautiful Sanjay Van – in the heart of Delhi! Now, fingers crossed for next week’s half marathon! May my legs remember the hard work over the summer and the hard winters!
