Haven’t posted for a while ( the app kept crashing) but been carrying on with the programme. Can’t believe I’m running for 25mins even in this heat!

Really want to get 5k in 30mins by the end of it, pace is hovering around 10min/ miles so hope to get there in the next few weeks.

Well done! The heat is really affecting people so be careful not to overdo it. A lot of us are sticking to very early morning or late evening runs.

Yeah I’m not going out till 9pm and it’s still too warm for an over weight Welshman! Should of started in the winter really.

I think we can rest assured that we’ll be back to running in the drizzle soon. I keep having flashbacks to 1976 when it was so hot we hid under the chairs at school sports day to avoid the sun and my uncle and aunt from Logroño were utterly baffled as they’d been led to believe England would be green.

Yes it seems crazy running in this heat! But your pace is spot on to hit 5k in 30mins

I’m actually finding it easier in a way to be running the whole time than starting and stopping. First time my legs have aches after a run today which surprised me, usually just a dull ache in one calf which goes over time.

Not what you're looking for?
