I was being treated again with a beautiful sunrise. Temperatures around -3 couldn’t stop the birds spreading their wings and bathing in the sun, nor me doing a slow 30 minutes. The double/double sock strategy is working a treat and I get away with 10 minutes warmup walking and no heartrate spikes.
This is a perfect week: the tide is perfect, no rain or wind and my heartrate is getting used to staying in or below the 140s.
Life is good, it’s just a matter of wearing the right amount of layers!
Also, someone seems to have called backup:

Wow what a gorgeous sunrise!
As I have just started following your blog… Is there a post I missed about your heart and why you are having to keep the rate down? Sounds scary! *big eyes*

Thank you for following! Nothing scary – just crazy and insane … ok maybe that is scary in itself! I posted about it here https://slowrunnergirl.wordpress.com/2016/01/22/my-crazy-plan-of-slowness. Basically I am testing the approach to train only aerobically for a period of time aka “base building”. Mainly to prevent injury and/or overdoing it, as I tend to go full out and then get injured.

The double/double sock strategy – just curious as to what this means 🙂

Hahaha! If I remember correct it was winter and I didn’t have winter running socks. My toes froze and next run I wore two pairs of socks!
