I had better be used to running in hot weather before I show up. Like I said earlier, I have run outside every day this month… why? Because when it’s optimal temperatures in the fall I can PR, at 39 years old. There is an outside chance I could qualify for Boston next year (getting an extra 5 min would help, being 40).
Injuries are fluky, but being prepared for these conditions can be avoided. I didn’t throw up yesterday and I was at 170 BPM for 22:30 outside.
No one is asking them to be able to play a game today. But to not be able to get through a practice is inexcusable.
You’re not training in 102 F heat on Day 2.
If you live in Cincinnati, you will very rarely train in 102 F heat, either.
