Cat C***! No, it's not my latest curse word- it's my latest product that helps when you are running in the heat. If you have problems with your glasses fogging in the heat because of the sweat from your face - look for Cat Crap at the sporting goods stores or the local ski shops. I tried it last week and it was a huge improvement.
Speaking of the heat... we can't emphasize enough the need to hydrate all week long as well as during your runs. Your body needs the hydration especially in this dry climate. As the miles increase, it is essential to stay hydrated and use fuel during your run - GU, Blocks, Fig Newtons. You should start re-fueling by the time after running 45 - 60 minutes. Keep refueling every 30-45 minutes as needed.
The "Fourth of July" run was great. We didn't have a lot of runners due to the holiday but there were some die hards that were there for the 7 miles or the 14 miles as scheduled. Keep checking the schedule - we start earlier in the heat!
Have a Great Week!
