Long distance running

I've never been a long distance runner.  I mean it's just something that's not right, although apparently the development of the ability to run a long way was a key event in our evolution.

I imagine that if you are running a long race, one of the important things is not to worry too much about how you are doing.  So I'm not too worried that for the last 20 days or so have been dominated by incredibly light or easterly winds.  The turbine is sited in a place which means it suffers from wind shadows when the wind is roughly easterly.  Not to worry.  When the wind drops as it has this week rush out and have a BBQ in glorious sunniness, and when it picks up again, as it has done now - wrap up against the blizzard and watch the turbine spin baby spin.
