To run or not to run? That is the question! Due to do W6R2 tonight struggled with R1 this week which I did on Friday I’ve taken the weekend off although I did do a very long walk up mam tor yesterday - do I run today in the heat?

I'd take a water bottle with me and go slow. If possible go somewhere with some shade and / or a breeze.
If it's aweful blame the heat!

If it was me I'd go as late as poss this evening when it's cooled down a bit, if not maybe check the weather forecast for tomorrow - if it looks more doable, take that instead? I find running in the heat really tough too! 😬

Why put it off?
It gets hotter than this..........even in Manchester.
When I did W6R2 I had a nightmare and repeated the run when I should have done run 3. It was hot and I wished I had done it earlier in the morning or later in the evening. But am now on W7 and loving it.
Hope you enjoy it when you do go 😁
