Aqua jog at a local pool. It’s boring as hell (no change of scenery, can’t listen to anything unless you have some kind of waterproof headphones) But if you do it right it’s actually a REALLY good workout

Please please do not run in the middle of the day in this heat. It is not worth it. You will get better benefits doing a HIIT bodyweight workout in your own home. You can do a highly effective workout in just the space of a workout mat. I'm a big fan of Peloton, but if you don't want to pay for that, I also like Bodyfit by Amy on Youtube - lots of different levels available!

Indoor tracks are bad for the legs if you are doing any kind of distance (more than 2 miles).

The only reason to be running at noon in the summer around here is if you are training/acclimating for Badwater:

There is an indoor track at the Wheaton Community Center. 13 laps is one mile. Sounds boring as hell. And, you spend 100% of your run turning so it's not good for your legs.

I ran at 6:30 yesterday and had a headache all day after, even with drinking electrolytes during my run. Ugh. Can't wait for cooler temperatures.

I'd go for the rec center gym if I was trying to keep up with training.
