    Did you run today, F Me? I didn’t. It was already over 80 degrees at 7:30am with 80% humidity. Air quality is not good either. Didn’t want to potentially feel sick. I’m going to try for Wednesday. It is supposed to be a bit cooler then, I hope. I feel guilty when I miss my run days but would rather deal with guilt than heat stroke  :s

    Had to move my long run from Sunday to Monday this week (didn't get out in time Sunday morning and was too damn hot). 

    Got in 10 miles today. Felt pretty good.

    Wow!! That is great. This is where I start to miss the treadmill at my gym. No idea when they will be reopening. I did my run yesterday, but today was too hot, even by 8am. Now think I will have to get up at 6am this week if I want to get any type of running in. What time did you get started this morning?

    About 6:45. My goal is to be out by 6:30 if I can to avoid the heat. Yesterday I didn't get out until closer to 8 and the heat index was already almost 90F.

    Nope, Monday is an off day.  :)
    I did look when I woke up and it was 93% humidity and I believe 75 out.  Would have been pretty darn hot 
    For sure try to avoid heat stroke!

    That is my problem. I am not an early morning person (I work at home with a very flexible schedule). I usually run at 9:30/10:00am or so. I thought getting up at 8am today was going to be good. I was so wrong. 6am it is. I hope I can get up that early. Yikes!

    I'm awake at 6am, but I'm not going for a run. It's too early. We dont seem to have the same problem with the temperature or humidity here. Good luck tomorrow @GlowGirl

    Wow. Had no idea. Mind blown!  ;)  I love England, by the way. I haven't been in so long, but hopefully will get there again at some point.

    I'm always up and out by 6 and sometimes by 5 if it's a ride and run day.

    And sometimes I add in a slow afternoon run

    That's nice of you to say - especially with everything going on here right now. We are a bit of mess :s

    So, I finally got out there earlier - 7:00am, and it was still hot as shit. Managed 4 miles so now I feel good. Skipping my run yesterday made my whole day feel a bit off. How did everyone get by today?

    Damn. Just measured my last route with proper GPS. Turns out my 11k run in 1:07 hours was actually 10k. :s

    Today was easy, 3 miles.  Ran at an easy pace and Wednesday is my 'pace day every week so I know better than to push it on Tuesdays 
    Hot but much better than it was on weekend.

    Well done @GlowGirl @Fme @JPPJ84

    I managed to walk the dog before work today as it was bright and sunny.

    You're making progress!

    Congrats to everyone keeping up with running despite the heat.

    Unable to cycle recently so I've been alternating walking and running, since I think I'll be in trouble if I run every day. Yesterday should have been a run day but I wasn't feeling well so just walked. Today, though!
