Hi Khrystyne,
I’m in Canada too, and it can get pretty darn hot up here sometimes. I second what everyone else said: try running when the sun isn’t high in the sky. You don’t need to wait until 10, but sometime around 8 will probably be easier than 4:30. Alternately, you could run in the morning before the sun rises too much.
If running at those times isn’t an option, make sure you’ve got clothing that breathes (cotton isn’t that great), and keep cold water on hand. If you can, bring one of those bags that has the water pouches, so that it’s always easily accessible (all you have to do is suck on the straw!). Keep your head covered with a hat and don’t push yourself too much. You might not be able to get the 30 minutes you’re used to, but think about how well you’ll be training your body for the coming of cooler weather. (Like a person who trains at high altitude and then suddenly can do so much more back at sea level.)
Cheers,
Julie
