It was HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT..... you get what I mean yeah??

Struggled today and had to stop a couple of times, a fellow runner also stated it was tough today and could do with some fog (which we have had for about a week). Was later in going out today hence the warmer temperature.

At the end I ran for a couple extra minutes just to make up for the short stops.

Am glad it's done for this week, roll on week 9 πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Congratulations! Great run Lou. That definitely does not count as a failure.

Respect for your running in the heat.

Only three little runs left. I regret taking a week off, otherwise I'd be where you are.

Good luck next week and look forward to seeing your badge.

Well done Looby, and don’t underestimate how hard it is to run in these conditions - many congratulations. Just one week to go :)
