Well, I was right to name this blog training in the rain. I'm quite impressed with myself though. I still went out for my walk even though there was horizontal rain and winds so strong that I was nearly being pushed over at times. By the time I reached my destination I was actually soaked to the skin. I think I need to invest in some waterproof trousers, it is Scotland after all. I've decided though that if the weather is like that for my longer walks I'll save myself some pain and treadmill it.

It wasn't all bad though as I'd chosen to walk to the local Turkish baths so I got to get all warm and toasty before heading home and then out for a lovely evening with friends. I'd never been to the Turkish baths before but I'll definitely be going again.

I'm having to rejig my training schedule for next week so that I don't have to walk at the weekend.

Next walk: Monday, 2 miles
