Kenyan Runner Highlights Jakarta's Hot and Humid Weather
Published
A Kenyan runner shared his experience of the weather in Jakarta. He believes that the weather conditions in Indonesia are always humid and hot. According to his observations, this situation makes it difficult for runners to maintain their pace, that is, the speed or stable rhythm of running.
In his statement, he said, "Indonesia is always humid, it's not easy to maintain pace. So, it's not easy to run in Indonesia because it's humid and very hot." He explained that the humid air makes the body tire more quickly when exercising outdoors.
Jakarta is known as a big city with warm temperatures and fairly high humidity levels throughout the year. This condition needs to be considered by runners, especially those who train or take part in outdoor running races. Runners usually adjust their training times, amount of water intake, and running intensity so that their bodies stay safe.
This statement from the Kenyan runner provides a picture of the challenges of running in Jakarta. Although the weather is hot and humid, many people still choose to run as a regular activity to maintain their health.
