Soooo... I need to go back and dive into the "heat training" that you mention, as I struggle big time with this!! I live in Maine, so only have limited time in the heat, but need to practice it as so many races I do are in the heat. If you have a link, I would love to read it! Thanks for sharing this at the Sunday Fitness & Food Link-Up...have a Great Week :-) (ps-Also Love all of your Yoga Poses!! My Fall Goal is to get back into Yoga and loosen up a bit ;-) )Angela Camposhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13865177278607438558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-67430214158173611542016-08-24T21:39:03.879-05:002016-08-24T21:39:03.879-05:00I was happy to get Pikachu today!I was happy to get Pikachu today!Wendy at Taking the Long Way Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09934786207724059919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-69199054443489829062016-08-24T21:38:45.461-05:002016-08-24T21:38:45.461-05:00Marathon training definitely takes over!
