With this heat, it was a struggle to find a good time to fit this one in. First 10 mins uncomfortable, then the rest ok until the last few minutes where my calves started aching. Still managed to give it a bit extra in the last minutes thanks to Michael’s encouragement, and am pleased he says I’m a runner now!

Yes, far too hot. It leaves only early morning or late evening as possible running times. I spent my rest day drinking loads trying to stay hydrated.

Not what you're looking for?
