Training Tip Thursday

"Hot humid summer weather -
Hot, humid summer weather doesn't have to put a stop to your training. Running before the sun is up, or late in the evening will keep the sun from baking your brains. Even more comfortable is to workout at the gym in front of the air conditioner or a big fan. The best indoor exercises for the distance runner are: treadmill, elliptical/orbital trainer, stairclimber/stepper machine; spin/stationary bike; leg-press machine. If you combine running with the machines, the running should be first, followed by the gym workout."
