I've always been extremely garbage at running in any heat, i have to run pretty early so that i don't get lethargic while running. 60 degrees ill be fine but anything over 70 and my performance is usaully cut nearly in half. My normal pace is around 7:00 for training runs, if the heat hits ill struggle to even do 9 or 10s even in 70 degrees.
anyone else get this?
Hard to believe you are so affected by 70 degrees and up. Where do you live? Hate to think about you and 90 or above.
Celsius or Fahrenheit?
I sucked in college, the heat, and most likely the humidity, of Florida was killer for me for some reason
You talked about training, but what happens when you race? I've convinced myself that my problems with heat are mostly in my head. On a training run I start feeling sorry for myself around 60 degrees and I feel I'm going to explode above about 70. But I've raced just fine (5K/10K) at temperatures as high as the low 80s. Once I get my mind off how uncomfortable I feel and focused on racing, everything works OK.
Boston nearly killed me this yr with high 60s temps.
I sweat a ton. Are you a heavy sweater too?
I Love the heat. I love running in hot weather. I love demolishing people in races in hot weather. Love it!!!
