What's It Like to Run in Humid Weather?

"I kind of re learned, or reintroduced myself to what it's like to run in weather versus dry weather. I started some of my bigger training sessions in the midwest," he says. "That was kind of a good reminder of what made me pay attention to with the transcontinental project"

Speaker 1
So i
Speaker 2
think i went through, on that first day, i had like an element pack of electrolights, just about a thousand milligrams, in that
Speaker 1
first 20 miler, and then another one in the second 20 miler. And then for the day, to the 36 point three mileer, i think in to two packets of element inside the contact that run as well.
Speaker 2
A week three was a little bit differnt cease, i actully spent half of this week in austin, so it was still dealing with the heat, but it was just a more, a little lower actual temperature, but much higher humidity. So i think it pekued ot like 97 degrees
Speaker 1
ah with just a drenching a humidity. So i kind of re learned, or reintroduced myself to what it's like to run in weather versus dry weather. I drew up. I started running. I started some of my bigger training sessions in the midwest. So training in the summer in the midwest, i definitely had some perspective as to kind of what to do in humid weather, and recognized, like, some of the signs of a, you know, what's what i need to do differently there. A, i
Speaker 2
did make one mistake that'll talk about a bit when i get to the simulation. That was kind of a good reminder of what made me pay attention to with the transcontinental project. Because with that, going from san francisco to new york, even though it won't be nearly as hot as midsummer,
Speaker 1
it will be moving from dry climates to humid climates and things like that. So it will be good to have perspective in both of those for for planning purposes. So
Speaker 2
that third week came out to about a hundred, 31 point three, five miles total. I did one inclined hik, set
Speaker 1
a session in there too. So one
Speaker 2
thing iam going to start implementing more
Speaker 1
is some up and down stuff, just to kind of accommodate some of those ke mountain passes that'll go through, moving moving across the country.
