Not just running...once last year I spent a day on the field as soccer manager at a kids' soccer tournament....with a high wind blowing all day long. I had a migraine afterwards and was absolutely wiped out the next day! I am convinced it was due to that dreadful wind. As for running in a high wind - I find it is very difficult to establish a rhythm and pace. The only way I've found to combat this is to take v short strides and muscle through it...and look forward to a better day and workout in future...

Running can be tough enough with out feeling your being held back by a strong wind! I agree with your comments on wind. it really must be the most challenging… mentally if nothing else.
