The Heat, and the Hills, and The Other Horrible Things That Start With "H"

OK, Stacy had some excellent questions on the run, drink, repeat site about not running in this heat, and hydration, and... God knows what else, there was a lot in there. I was going to paste my response in here, but no, why don't you just get in the habit and mosey on over there to check it out. There really is some very important info about running in this heat. I don't want anyone to be disillusioned, and am even less fond of anyone dying out there, so please check it out.

Tuesday's workout has us doing the Pressler Hill Repeats - Happy, Happy! Joy, Joy! We'll meet at Whole Foods at 6:30pm, outside by the stairs to the plaza level. Try not to park in the primo spots at Whole Foods - let's save those for the non-sweaty masses who are shopping, and not running. There's plenty of parking in the garage, and here's usually plenty of parking on the street.

Here's a map of the route we'll run - the way back to Whole Foods may get modified slightly, but the important bit is getting to the actual hill workout on Pressler, where we'll be running up... and back down... and back up... and back down... and so on and so forth. So, if you're late, you can run over there to meet up with us.

Afterwards, I suggest we grab food and drink at Whole Foods, and if people want more drinkies, we can head across the street after that to the Tiniest Bar In Texas. So, bring dry clothes, at least a dry shirt, some dry shoes if yours get soaked like mine do, and maybe a towel.
