Any other over 65 runner/joggers on DU?
Its pretty rough out there in the 90 degree heat - what are your survival techniques?

Its best to go late - after 6 PM but not so late that the muggers are out...

HYDRATE!

2. I have a hard & fast rule: I never run unless I'm being chased,
and it's been a long time since I've been chased. I see people out running in extreme heat and I just think how stupid that is.

3. You're right but the feelings of euphoria you get after a difficult run
are incredible. Its like walking on a cloud or 10 ft over the ground. I'm totally addicted.
