Acclimating

It has felt like summer this week. It was been in the upper 80s. I know it will get hotter this summer but right now I’m just trying to get acclimated to the the heat. It will just take time.

When I got home this afternoon, Sara was about to head out the door to run. I told her if she would wait for me to change, I would go with her.

We headed out and she too struggled in the heat. She dropped off after a mile and I went on to run 3 more.

Good Luck to Michele who is doing a half Iron tomorrow in Georgia.

    You’re a better man than I! Upper 80′s? It was 70 when I started out this morning and 76 when I finished and I was dying!!

    Isn’t it crazy how we know we are going to have temps so much hotter, but this initial heat is like taking a beating?! I’ve been trying lots of tricks to get over the acclimation of the heat!
