I got your message after my run; however, I must have had a premonition of your advice as I followed it even before I read it! :) I went slowly and stopped to walk a couple of times. I hydrated often with a combo of Gatorade and water, and I consumed 3 electrolyte pills. I am definitely a bit dehydrated (according to the color of my urine!) but otherwise okay. Happy running to YOU!AJBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08638280233601071904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5211270843907807096.post-55580152604002218972009-04-25T23:28:00.000-04:002009-04-25T23:28:00.000-04:00A- start slowly, the heat is gross to us lovers of...A- start slowly, the heat is gross to us lovers of the cold-weather runs! I took my run today in the heat very slowly, walked a bit, even on the 3 mile trail outing. One time, a few years ago, I went out and ran like it was 50 degrees or something...when it was actually 80-something...and came home to throw up. YAY. take it slowly. Best to skip a shorter run if you have to cram/rush it. You've done the training. You are ready!Trail Pixie Trespashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04731210682109959903noreply@blogger.com
