LOL, that's a typical Florida day, maybe even a bit cool and less humid! I know its real tough, it kills my butt every weekend and I live in it! Good Luck and I'll do my little indian weather dance for you to cool things off a bit ;)
Yeah, this is leaving me a little concerned. We will likely be running in the hottest part of the day while the pros and fast people will already be done!
It will be warm, just be sure to stick to your hydration/nutrition plan, ESPECIALLY on the bike. Last year, there was plenty of water on the run course, so you should be fine.
Don't worry about the weather--it's something you just can't control. Know that your training will get you through!
Update not good!! You sum it up well. We have a 10K race Sunday.. but at least it is 2X around a lake. Best to you. You have trained in humidity. (And I keep remembering Chicago Marathon.)
66-year young mom of 2 young adults, Grandmother of 4, who is a back-of-the-pack runner and triathlete. Since my return to running at 46, I've completed 2 Chicago marathons, the Flying Pig marathon, 11 half-marathons, 7 duathlons,5 sprint triathlons,1 Olympic, 1 half Iron triathlon, and the 2008 Steelhead (DU). 2009 I did my Iron Distance on Nov 7 at the Beach2Battleship, North Carolina.
10 years away from things, I am now trying to comeback starting with a 5k.
