A decent run in very warm weather

I’m trying to do three runs per week and not finding it easy. I’m very good at making excuses and putting it off until another day 🤦‍♀️. So I was pleased to get out with two of my buddies from park run and we were happy that, around 8am this morning, the weather felt pretty cool.

As soon as we set off the clouds parted and it was full sun all the way! It really was hot and I was soon wishing for rain and cloud, but it didn’t come! We all managed to complete the run but then shot off quickly to the nearby cafe to the shade and cool drinks!

I’m going to make it a ‘quest’ to be a regular three runs a week runner, so fingers crossed. The photo is from a brisk 20 minute walk that I just did, to reach my step goal for the day too.

Happy running/walking all.

Running under the sun on a hot day is really hard especially if you aren’t prepared for it so well done on finishing it and finding that cafe 😃

Three runs a week is a very good target. Good luck with it.
