Jesus Mary and Joseph that was harder than I thought it would be. The park I run in has no breeze either so this heat really takes its toll! BUT I did it! The last one hurt but I’ve been keeping a slower pace because I think I was doing it slightly too fast last two runs and it was much better! Bring on the rest of the week 💪🏼

Well done you, the heat can make it so much harder, especially if you have high humidity too. Make sure you drink plenty of water and stay hydrated!

Well done 👍 it’s hard going at times but keep plodding with the rest of us. The heat is bad so try running in the morning when it’s cooler.

That’s what I’m going to do. I ran at 8 this morning but think it needs to be earlier than that still! Shall keep going regardless 🥳
