Really, really struggled today. The heat is awful to run in and I can’t get motivated. But I did it - just!

Well done for running. It is too hot! Take it all steadily and good luck with the next one.

Well done for getting it done! Have you tried running early morning or late evening, when it’s cooler? I usually find 7am works best for me, some people here seem to head out much earlier than that too.

Seriously well done NR. It has been too hot lately.

Good luck for your final week.

I’m only one run ahead of you but I really struggled with W8R3 and I’m not sure it was just the heat either. Weirdly W9R1 was better today. I have no explanation! You did it which is the main thing.

Not what you're looking for?
