Too hot for this ginger 😅🥵

Argh, I stopped. Week 7 Run 1

Despite Jo telling me I could, I couldn’t.

That’s never happened before...😔

I'm also a ginger (well I was, as much grey as ginger now) and find the heat awful. I run really early in the morning as I know I would melt otherwise.

You can do this, just take a days rest and then try again - it doesn't matter how many attempts it takes you as long as you don't give up.

I’m also ginger and fair skinned! I find it soooooo difficult in the heat! I almost pass out and overheat! And literally can not run any more! I then purchased a peaked cap and a cool towel! And also try and run as early as I can! It works wonders 👍 it’s still hard but I highly recommend a cap and cooling towel 👍 makes such a difference!

That’s so good to hear! It’s not just me! X

[Chewy73 Graduate in reply to Orangepastill]

Haha! No it’s not. Us gingers just can’t take the heat 😞

I’m another red head -always took exception to ginger 🤣 - and I just don’t do heat. Give me dull and cool any day. xx

How hot is it there?

[Orangepastill Graduate in reply to Bontobpat]

About 12 degrees...😉

[Bontobpat Graduate in reply to Orangepastill]

Oh my, that would be a chilly morning where I am!

[Orangepastill Graduate in reply to Bontobpat]

I’m only joking, it was probably already about 20 degrees at 7am... it’s getting hotter...

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Orangepastill]

Ha, 12C that's 54F, on Thursday the temperature in parts of East and south east England is to be 33C/92F, that is hot, even very early morning temperatures are not to go below 18C/64F

I’m half Indian and I’m rubbish in the heat 🤣
