Downsized run . . .

I can't say its been a great week for running, 4k on Monday but nothing since, mostly due to the heat. I did have great plans for this morning but a busy day yesterday and a poor nights sleep due to the heat left me feeling less than enthusiastic when I woke up. I finally forced myself out the door at 7.15 and did just over 3k, it wasn't too bad and I'm glad I went although it did seem to require a lot of willpower and effort. Hopefully I can get out for something a bit further early tomorrow morning to try and push up my week's mileage, we'll see . . . Take care in the heat everybody if you venture out.

Oh well done! It’s hard to muster any energy to go for a run at the minute so any distance is a big plus 👍

That's what I told myself this morning when I was trying to get myself out the door 😁

Any run in this heat is better than none. I was aiming for 30 mins yesterday but only managed 20 due to the heat (7.40am) 🥵 hoping to do a park run tomorrow (some of it through the woods so nice and shady) 🤞🏻
