Did almost 6 miles at running club tonight. Bit cooler than our run on Tuesday - only 27C, 26C by the end. Some cloud & a fairly decent breeze bringing the "feels like" temp down further.
Sad thing is, I was the only one there.
Presumably they cancelled on WhatsApp?

When next week's run is going to be a "smartphone-only" version of orienteering - and the arrangements will be made on WhatsApp - you realise #DigitalExclusion is REAL.
Anyone else miss old-school, tech-free #running?

1️⃣ Digital health tools promise more efficient and accessible healthcare—but do they benefit everyone equally?
Last night, Prof @trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social explored how digitalisation can actually deepen health inequalities by creating new barriers.
