Description

This week on Dear Runner Bod, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes update on my training for my upcoming fall half marathon. Spoiler: my body has never been great at heat acclimation—and this training cycle is proving no different.


I chat about what it’s been like managing hot summer miles, higher heart rates, and hydration struggles, and how I’m adjusting my carb intake and fluid strategy to keep performance on track. If you’ve ever felt like your body just doesn’t cooperate with heat training, this episode will feel very relatable.
