Back to doing what I do!

Today marked my third day back from a gym membership that ended in August.

Word has spread and my flock of Sauna Buddies (both male and female) have come from far and wide to hear my witty tales of shovels and sandals galore.

Embrace the Heat

My whole life I have always loved hot weather. My body temperature runs cold around 97 degrees. I'd rather exercise in 100 degree weather than 70 degrees. The heated seat in my car in on 90% time when I go driving. A couple years ago I started going to the (coed) sauna in order to get better acclimated to the scorching hot weather of Death Valley so that I could crew my friend as he ran the Badwater 135. I was instantly hooked, and since that time I have spent and average of 5-10 hours a week in the 170 degree sauna at my gym. The sauna has become mt water cooler, I have made 100s of friends their both male and female and it where I go to relax. (I refer to them as my sauna buddies simply because it sounds wrong) I feel that the sauna gives me a physiological advantage while racing in hot weather and has also taught my body to process water more efficiently. Every race I run I hope for hot weather because I know that I am ready for it and that may not be the case for my competition.
