ANY TIPS FOR RUNNING A HALF
In 85 degree weather!
I am running the Philly Rock and Roll half this Sunday and they are saying the weather is going to be 85 and sunny! Just my luck I hate running in the heat and have had enough of it this summer. I know I am giong to do horrible! I am so upset about this!

Re: ANY TIPS FOR RUNNING A HALF
I've never run a half before, but I've run shorter races in 90 plus degree weather with alot of humidity. When it's that I hot I try to wear as little as possible (sports bra and shorts only) and I alwyas make sure I have glide on!! I also drink extra gatorade to prevent dehydration.

Good luck Rosemarie!! It was really hot at the LI Half, what was it...82 or something? But we made it! I know it stinks, cuz you know the heats gonna slow you down, but just make sure you stay hydrated! Can't wait to hear about it!

Re: ANY TIPS FOR RUNNING A HALF
you are starting at 8, so I think you will probably start in the 60's - hopefully humidity is low!
I think the best thing that I did during the LIHM in May was lower my expectations. You just cannot run as fast in warmer weather.
Good Luck!
