Be careful even running inside. I run on the treadmill inside in my guest room and I have the ceiling fan on and windows open and in this SoCal heat I still get hot. I got so hot last Friday that I almost passed out 😳
Until the end of september, I'm splitting my long runs. Florida heat has been brutal this summer. I do about 60 percent pf my rin on the morning, the rest in the evening. Only do this with the longest of long runs.
The hat part should have more emphasis because that can change everything, also get a hydration pack if you don't have water fountains and make sure it's breathable or else it's useless. If you live somewhere safe just start running ridiculously early, like 4 or 3 am to skip the Sun entirely and it feels cool being out there alone.
On my last day run I felt like I sweat off all the sunscreen I put on. Any tips? Put it on sooner? Do yall prefer a certain brand of sunscreen that favors physical activities?
Wondering what to look for when you've pushed it too hard? Early signs? I know at pace my heart rate is +10bpm when it's hot and then some. I'm also seeing it's hard to get it back down if I'm doing repeats. I'm basically pulling the plug on outdoor workouts in the heat.
I think early signs of heat exhaustion can vary from person to person. Generally, I just take it really easy when it's hot. I've gotten heat sick twice from running in 90+ degree wether with high humidity. Both times I felt fine during the run but when I got home and sat down I suddenly felt like I was gonna pass out and I spent the whole day in misery. Be careful when its hot.
ok he has great tips, but his tip about Sun screen, do not follow. Do not use sunscreen. Those sunscreen bottles have dangerous chemicals. when chemicals go on body and sun hits your skins, that is micro penetration and the chemical gets deep into the cell membrane. Please don’t do that, can cause cancer. if you want a Sun block, this is what you use (tallow, butter, caster oil, 1egg, salt, and water) mix with cake whisp. It will become a cream butter texture, that is good for your skin. Use that for sunblock
