My running buddy got the jacket for Christmas. I thought it was beautifully made but his partner said it looked like and England football shell suit top. Anyway, he has stopped wearing it as it irritates his neck and is back with a Nike/TK Maxx jacket he has had for years.
It's minus 2 and I just ran home in merino baselayer (love it!), long sleeve asics top and thin gilet. Perfect. I have an Asics storm shelter jacket but find it too hot and never wear it.
Thanks - that makes a lot of sense. I do have a demanding job and family AND was also told I was low on iron when I last tried to give blood. I'll give the Feroglobin a go for a few weeks and see if that helps.
I am training for a half next month and am up to 10 miles. I can live with feeling a bit stiff after long runs but increasingly I find I am very sleepy tired and struggling to stay awake. I generally run in the morning and have some toast or similar before I go then cereal and banana/milk afterwards. Does anyone else suffer from this and i can I ear/drink something different to help with this?
