Crazy from the heat
From Marita Skogum, at the Swedish team training camp in Lithuania:
In the middle of the summer, we trained with warm-ups and rain jackets. We want to simulate the heat that we expect at the World Champs in Japan in August...
I understand the thinking. But, it sure doesn't sound fun.
The weather at the WOC is expected to be hot and humid -- mid 90s and 80 percent humidity, or something like that. Those conditions won't be fun to run in.
Did the IOF consider moving the WOC to a different time of year, a time when the weather might not be a decisive factor?
