HOT HOT HOT

20 degrees at 9 in the morning doesn’t help for a positive run #ratherrunindrizzle. 🤯

I agree. I went out at 5.50 this morning and it was already hot.

I hated running in the heat this morning!

Prepare well a day before, hydrate, run earlier in the day when it's still on the fresh side and stick to the shade. You'll be fine, we can't really call this a 'heat'.

Last winter many of us ran in terrible wind and cold, and don't forget the dark. Give me this weather any time!

I don't like hot weather anyway, is much rather have the cold 😀

The key is to make either extreme comfortable!

There was one winter run, really cold and windy, where l thought, ok, that's it, they'll find me frozen in a ditch. Of course, after I'd warmed up l was fine and able to enjoy myself.

Heat is the same. Prepare, resist & enjoy! If we let weather dictate our lives we'd never leave our rooms!

As a newbie to running and at over 16 stone the heat is my enemy right now ☀️😩

I'm sure it will get easier with repetition and weight loss though 💪

Believe in yourself, take it easy, take your time, don't push it and you'll be fine!

All the best!
