W8R3 done in the sun 🔥

I really do have to stop setting out to run at midday when the sun is out. The Met Office say it's 19C but my face says it's more like 29C 😳. I've been back for 45 minute and I still haven't cooled down. Thankyou to whoever it was who asked about Bluetooth headphones this week. As I hold my iPhone in my hand and use wired earbuds I took the advice on board and bought a set which I ran with for the first time today. What a revelation! It is not actually necessary to keep whipping yourself in the face with a wire while running! Why did I not know that? I have been accidentally ripping out my earbuds and generally getting cross for nearly 8 weeks now 😡 I am now looking forwards to completing Week 9 with my earbuds securely in my ears and my face unwhipped and serene (probably an attractive shade of magenta but still serene). Hope you all have a good weekend and keep on running 🏃🏃

A good, comfortable pair of Bluetooth headphones are a must if you want to listen to any music/podcasts.
