Well trotted out later than normal so it was a hot one this morning.Did any other trotters manage to get out?

I met some farmers on the way who had lost some cattle,actually it was only one that had bolted over a hedge after much irrational from the flies on it.

The farmers were looking to see if anymore had escaped. I replied that I hadn’t see any on my travels and if I had I would have probably ran the other way!ha! yes you’ve guessed it I’m petrified 😲😲of cows.As long as there is a fence,gate or hedge between them and me I’m ok.

I didn’t go to far this morning as I wanted to stay close to home as it was too hot.

I managed 4.82km in 40 mins. Not the best but with heavy legs,hot weather I wasn’t to worried. That’s it for this week ,three runs. Back to work Monday so it will be two runs a week now for a while.

Hope you are keeping cool and safe in this hot weather.🌞🌞

Happy running folks🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🤗🤗

Well done Peggy! I too got out later than I would normally (7:45 instead of 6:30!) and it was too hot. Wet buff around the neck trick keeps me cool though, that and the shade of the woods - phew! x

Well done Peggy, I think you are wise to stay close to home while it is so hot. Next week it’s getting hotter too. I must get that buff out of my ski clothing box as that sounds like a great idea. Also putting a water bottle in the freezer the night before. Happy trotting 🏃‍♀️

Happy running Dexy and keep safe and keep cool!🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Yes you mustn’t fill the bottle though, leave room for expansion 🏃‍♀️💦

So Dexy do you mean just put an empty water bottle in the freezer or don’t fill the bottle up to the top? 😀😀
