Dear Chums

Tomorrow morning I will run W9R3. Go me. It’s been FAB. I’ve timed the whole thing so I can run Parkrun on Saturday morning.

However, I’m a bit concerned about the heat as I really don’t want my 1st ever parkrun to be hellish - both literally and figuratively.

My clever sis (a very keen runner) had a great suggestion which I’d like to share. If it IS too hot on Sat morning go early and do the same route but before the heat really kicks in. That way I get a feel for doing a parkrun and can be way less apprehensive when I do it for real in lesser heat.

Sounds like a plan.

Why not just go and take it really, really slowly...or if you think it will be much too hot... then carry out your plan... :) Just don't do both on the same day..😉
