My first run on different continent! I made it! At 7:30am I was running through thick hot air on the beautiful beach near my hotel. My lungs start to struggle after less than 5 minutes. Lesson for me - try to start earlier ;)

EDIT: Sorry for not so great picture. My "selfie" skills are in progress.

Oohh... heat... I remember that 😂

Great job getting out there while on holiday... I didn’t think that there was a 7:30am in holiday destinations!

7:30am is only on those destinations that equal to 1:30pm back in UK. I woke up at 4qm, but it was still pitch black, so decided to have another nap.
