Oh my god. It is so bloody hot. Today MUST have been the hottest day of the year so far. We have no air-conditioning at work, and I sit in the middle of an open-plan office, not even next to a window. The breeze from the nearest fan just about reaches the ends of my hair if I'm lucky. I thought I was going to melt into a pool of mush today. At what temperature does it become illegal to make people go to work? It must have been over 90f in there today.

Tried to wait for as long as possible before running tonight but it didn't seem to be getting much cooler so decided just to brave it. Ran round to Gareth's to pick him up (just under a mile) and was already burning up by the time I knocked on the door. He wasn't ready of course (was assembling a new fan) and made me wait at least another fifteen minutes. Ridiculous really as we only ran together for five minutes before going off in opposite directions.

Just couldn't hack it tonight. It was just so unbearably hot and it felt really laboured. Tomorrow is apparently going to be over 100 degrees as well so will probably go back to the gym. Hopefully it will get a bit cooler by the weekend.

2.5 miles. Don't know how long it took... roughly 25 minutes I think. Something like that.
