Too hot to trot!

Loving the wonderful weather and the only thing it stops is daytime running! Even if I try to stay in the shade like the woods or run on the cool side of the street, it is way too warm for running. I will try an evening run, last time I did that, I tripped over and grazed my knee. Planning a nice slow 5 later on. What do you do to stay cool?

Phew it certainly is hot isn't it? Did a 5k this morning at about 9am but the sun was already hot and it was so humid. Really slowed me down but it's that or don't run at all. I'm almost looking forward to Winter when I have to get my gloves out to stop my hands from freezing! Hope you stay upright on your run tonight Joolie😉

I'm doing mine early at 0600hrs before work. it is just perfect then. I did a 10.5km on Sunday at 0930 and it was so warm by then I really struggled!

Wet your hair before you go out, and carry a wet cloth!

I'm having a week off, it's just too hot here.

I always run in the evening but so warm now that it's usually almost dark before it cools enough to go out. My friend brings one of those little spray bottles of water to spray her face and says that helps.
