Episode Description from the Publisher

If you've stepped outside for a run lately and thought "why does this feel so much harder than it did two months ago," this one's for you. Summer running is humbling, and if you're in the middle of a training block right now, it can feel like everything is going backwards. It's not. You're just doing the hardest training of your cycle in the hardest time of year to do it.In this Wednesday mini episode, I'm walking you through three things you can do right now to make summer running way more manageable, from hydrating like you actually mean it, to a few freezer tricks I wish someone had told me way earlier in my running career, to heat acclimation and why starting slow now pays off in a big way come fall.Slow summers equal fast falls.
