I didn't this morning, I was running early but still it was pretty sunny! UV exposure increases skin cancer risk for all of us πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ½πŸƒπŸΏβ€β™€οΈ

Also take all the usual precautions for this weather.

Hope all your running is going as you'd want it to!

Indeed, I am of the right age to have loved this when it came out! And the R+J soundtrack...

I thought I'd have a listen since you linked it, and found this line:

Don't waste your time on jealousy ... sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself.

Wise advice icklegui πŸ™‚πŸ‘ The sun can be lovely, but it can also be deadly!πŸ₯΅ I’m down on the south coast at the moment and the sea breeze can disguise just what the sun is up to!😊🌞

Very good point! At least if you're going to the beach people naturally might think of suncream but certainly the wind can hide the effect of the sun!

Am missing the south coast myself - Croydon will have to do for now!
