Another running event, another heat stroke πŸ’” As a runner, we all know the feeling of pushing ourselves to our limits, but what happens when our body can't keep up? It's time to talk about the real consequences of overheating and why it's crucial to listen to our bodies.

Have you ever noticed that no matter how hard you try, the same thing keeps happening during races? Your body temperature rises, you feel dizzy and disoriented, and you can't seem to shake it off. That's because repeated overheating can have a lasting impact on your body, specifically on the hypothalamus.
