  • How to walk in the heat

    You’ll have noted it’s quite hot outside so here’s some tips for enjoying your walking during the summer.

    · Avoid the heat of the day by walking before 10AM or after 6PM.

    · Walking where there’s tree cover provides shade and makes your walk much cooler. Keep in mind that direct sunlight can make the temperature feel up to fifteen degrees hotter.

    · Light-coloured clothing and hats can shield you from ultraviolet rays, but remember to keep your arms and legs covered regardless of what you’re wearing.

    · Be sure that whatever you wear wicks away moisture.

    · Drink water a few hours before you walk and then during your walk. Do so by carrying a bottle with a mix of ice and water

    · Take regular sips - six to eight ounces of water every fifteen minutes are recommended.

    · Consider making a shirt, bandana or hat damp before you go walking
