So I got up extra early and was running at 6am, early for me, to avoid the heat. Still felt like a hard slog today. And still felt v warm. Have cut down to 2 runs a week due to being busy and cos I was having calf pain (which is better thankfully) and am wondering if that's why am struggling? Not planning to run now til Saturday when it's cooler 🌡️am just not good in the heat, even just being outside in it. And am worried about having bigger gaps between runs.

Hi...I have big gaps in between my runs now due to knees and needing them to repair between each run. If I manage to go out tonight it will be 5 days since my last run... ( longer than normal but daughters birthday and visitors stopped play!)

I havent had a problem so far...hopefully because we have come so far the stamina is still there. Good luck and let me know how you get on xxx
