W8r1 - last 5 mins were tough

Wow that last 5 mins were tough on w8r1. It was hot out so i think this hindered me a little. First time i felt it in my legs too, my calves started to tighten in the last couple of minutes but the walk at the end loosened them out just before cramp set in. The previous run i found fine but it was a few days ago on mon. It's weird how some days you struggle more than others. Run 2 on sun.

Great work... it’s considerably hotter than it was on Monday... luckily at this tome of year it won’t last 😂
