Massive respect to anyone & everyone running in this heat

Especially those graduating. You are all heroes in my mind. I didn’t even venture to the gym today. I did an interval run on Friday & just felt ill for the rest of the day. Really hoping this heat dies down soon. Take it easy tho folks - we don’t want anyone getting heatstroke!

You are so right! I went at 9 this morning and boy it was hot! Changed my plan and headed to the shade alongside the river which is getting boring but rather that than too hot!!! I never thought I would say I would like it to cool down but I really would like it to cool down now!!

I have my first 25 minute run today. It’s 26c here in Amsterdam and I’m absolutely dreading it! I’ve been preparing by drinking plenty of water this afternoon. Wish me luck!

Oh do be careful! Take it slow & steady. Good luck & keep us posted!

You all need to get out by 6am otherwise it’s too late! 🔥 🔥🔥🔥

Yes, it’s not pleasant to run unless you’re doing early morning or later in the evening 🙂

Take care everyone, and keep hydrated. 👍 Keep it slow and steady if you have to run too 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Good luck everyone. As they said on ‘Hill Street Blues’ (for those of us who can remember those days 😉) “Let’s be careful out there” 😀

Ha ha! Yeah I remember that - I worked for a business machines company at the time & every morning the Manager of the engineers used to say that to them before they went out on the road - that was back in the days when you could have banter at work without fear of offending anyone or being sued!

You’re right Welshwitch. If I can’t get up as early as ripcurl tomorrow I think I’ll head for the air conditioned gym. I didn’t even go and watch race for life today, I just stayed under the parasol in the garden. I think it’s cooling down next week though. 😓☀️
