It’s far from ideal out there for sure. Double kudos for getting the job done in this combination of heat and humidity. Take on extra water over the summer, my tracker gives me an extra half litre on my target for every 30 minutes of exercise.

Great job today... cooler weather after Sunday. I used to love the heat 🀣

Thanks for the advise re:water...will go get another large glass now!

I know, while everyone's been complaining about the naff June we've had, I've been secretly pleased πŸ˜‚

I agree double pat on the back for all of us mad people who have gone running today. I love the sun 🌞 ( lounge chair, good book bbq) but for running it’s tough.

Yep far too warm. I went first thing this morning instead, couldn't face running in the heat! Kudos to you!

Good idea, well done you!...I'm dedicated, but not so much that I can push myself to actually get out of bed early enough to go for a run before work 😴
