Oh good. A heatwave is here. Just what this pandemic insurrection police brutality marathon needed.

No time for lounging in front of a fan! We'll be fit testing our sweaty respirators and wearing helmets + protective gear at protests.

We can do this PDX, but carefully! First, check in with yourself about health and wellness. If you're already struggling or recovering from injury it might be time to stay home for 2 days and let the heat pass.
If you're on the fence, take today to pamper yourself with extra hydration and rest.
