Jericho

June 20, 2021 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
Got started a bit late today, got carried away looking at my research statement. Not great planning because apparently we are in a heat wave and its supposed to get hot the next few days, especially in later afternoon. It was sunny but breezy so depending on the direction, quite comfortable. Started out down to Carnarvon Park then took Blenheim to the beach and did a loop around Jericho before coming up the hill by WPGA. There were spots where I struggled in the heat. Did my best to stay hydrated beforehand. This always happens but I am not used to the summer running and take time to adjust. Glad I fit in a little extra today but Im not up to real long run distances quite yet.

Essentials: Stretch

Drenched and hungry when I got back since I ran right around lunch time. It took me a while to simmer down but after that, stretching was good, feeling much more limber and not too sore. I need to keep hydrating though and recover from the sun blindness. Too bright out. Also just not used to the amount of sunlight in the summer. I was walking back home last night at 10:30 and it was still kinda light out like the sun was just going down. Thats the comforting feel of summer though
