Just back from a short run. 800m hillrepeats with 60eg. The tricky part was the 32°C (fels supposedly like 37°C) and the 75% humidity. Now trying to cool down, literally.
Photos from yesterday.
Zurück von eine kurzen Lauf. 800m Bergaufläufe mit 60Hm. Das knifflige war die Temparatur von 32°C (soll sich wie 37°C anfühlen) und die 75% Luftfeuchtigkeit. Versuche mich jetzt abzukühlen, im wahrsten Sinne.

"Due to the unbearable heat, the [#Philippines'] Department of Education has allowed #schools to either hold remote lessons or cancel classes altogether.
The country is also in the process of shifting back to a June to March academic calendar, following complaints among students and teachers over holding classes during the peak summer season."
“The frequency, intensity, duration and the area covered by these heatwaves are increasing over time. We are on a rollercoaster ride in terms of temperature, which is not going to come down any time soon. It’s going to be worse, which means we need to be prepared.”
