[quote=Anonymous]Two things…First of all. Congrats!!!! Pat yourself on the back and give yourself some grace. Second, even just doing what you are doing if you simply found a late fall race where the temp at start time was below 60 you would see a massive improvement. Did you know that a study looking at 1.8 million marathoners over a 10 year period showed that the optimal temperature was 43.2f!! Why are you trying to PR in the summer? Even if you do focused heat training and your body adjusts to increase your plasma volume, improved vascular function, and better thermal tolerance at the cellular level, you will absolutely run slower as the temps increase. You add in high humidity…game over for your PR chances. You need to account for a significant decrease in performance. Think 8% worse. Don’t try for a PR in the summer [/quote]
