Thanks!  The susceptibility to heat exhaustion is quite timely here in Texas.  Not sure I agree though....I've been sweating buckets, and supplement with runs through sprinklers and even ice myself down midway through longer runs.  Probably TMI, but ice in the sports bra works wonders! 

Ha!  Yep....but you could get yourself a sports bra to stuff with ice too....might make for a whole different kind of issue though !  Seriously, I put much of the ice on the side....kinda under my armpits, and it really does have a nice cooling effect for the next mile or two.  I sound like a drink, shaken not stirred, but it beats heat exhaustion! 

Hey John, I'm totally jealous!  Yes, we are still hitting the triple digits daily.  We have also set a record for most days with lows over 80 degrees, so there is not even much relief in the early morning.  I'm allowing myself one treadmill run per week just to get a break from it.  My first olympic distance tri is on 9/5, and I'll likely be in the last wave, so praying for a cool front and/or lots of ice on the run course.
