I'd never want to run a bitch in heat, i'm told they develope fat around the heart when in season, but i must confess, a have done, many times ..

We've all done it if we are honest when I was alot younger and keener I had more drive then the dogs I used to run them into the ground brutal

Some don’t run as well when in season, and can become less soft (less conditioned) especially after the season. But unless your matching then carry on regardless, you should now your dog better than anyone to judge it’s condition. 
running 5 winter hares is different to marking a rabbit Warren, 

I had a bitch could run through her season ,but i had two bitches that were running great when there season came i thought they were jacking . I nearly gave them away so some can run with others cant these were coursing daytime dog,s and getting worked 3 r 4 days a week.

I think maybe some bitch's minds are more on finding a mate at this time, as with a Russell bitch I had who ripped open a chainlink dog run to get to my male. The whippet stags I had wouldn't let a dog near them even when right on and I never got a pup out of them but they worked perfectly through their cycles.
