It really is fun though, eh?
I mean, as much as we whinge about taking a beating in these storms (and not to make light of the fact that people died yesterday) it is exhilarating to battle through such ferocious weather, and then there's the fabulous c-a-l-m when you finally reach safety. It's a rush.

I forgot to mention my big news - yesterday's madness was in part to celebrate the arrival of my new Brookes Adrenaline off roaders. Purchased from the good people at the Jog Shop (thanks Sean) they're a road shoe upper/ off road sole hybrid, built for comfort and grip, and my first venture into the world of Brookes. I tried on around six pairs, including the latest Sauconys (nice) and Mizunos (a favourite brand) but the Adrenalines just felt right.

Hardly a fair try-out yesterday so I'll reserve judgement, although I didn't fall over which I'd have to say is a pretty good sign. A stern test awaits on Sunday when I'll be running in sticky mud and on tarmac.

A farewell then to my beloved Climacools.
They enter my own running shoe hall of fame where I keep beloved/ memorable boots, still wearing their final coat of mud, to be lovingly admired in my dotage.
So long, and thanks for all the miles.

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
