How can I safely train outdoors during the hotter months in the Sutherland Shire?

Training in the early morning or late afternoon is key to avoiding the heat. The temperatures are much cooler, and you'll also enjoy stunning sunrises or sunsets. • Always stay hydrated! Carry a water bottle and consider planning routes that have access to water fountains or shaded areas where you can take breaks. • Wear light, breathable clothing and apply sunscreen before heading out. This will help protect you from the sun while keeping you comfortable during your workouts. • Listen to your body. If you start feeling dizzy or overly fatigued, it's okay to take a break or adjust your training intensity. Safety should always come first.
