Heat hits quick, your pace crumbles . . . and we always seem to forget the dew point, our ability to fuel better, and slow down make a huge difference in our long term health and recovery. Today we look at what's going on when Spring turns to Summer and our body wants to protect itself. Good stuff in here about acclimating to heat, hydration, why body weight and body fat matter, and why your "easy runs" may be the long term culprit. Topics: Overnight habit changes? Deceptive mornings Wrapping your mind around Dew Point Digging massive holes (two ways) Getting in shape and acclimating at once Chasing paces "I'm losing my fitness" Humidity and Dew Point affect your breathing So much water in air it's harder to get oxygen Cooling effect of sweating is negated Keeping ego in check Your pace could be 1:30 slower! How your body protects itself Heat affects people differently Why Starky probably won't win Kona Body type matters Body weight, fat, and heat How to be a better athlete in the heat Core temp and acclimation Benefits of training in the heat What you should do BEFORE a hot run Perceived exertion while carrying fuel Fueling days in advance How going rogue makes you pay What to eat and drink after you run, especially in heat The C26 Online Hub is now open to the public!
