RACING A 5K DURING A HEATWAVE

  • This was hands down THE most humid race I've ever run - London has been warm this week! Focusing on shorter distances in training has been enjoyable but it doesn't make these races any easier. Running in humidity is already so tough but I just wanted to share the reality of what this day looked like and how running can truly make you feel so emotional 🥲

    I'm a runner from halfway across the globe, and my country sits right at the equator. The average running temp here is north of 30 degrees celsius, 86 up in Fahrenheit. Humidity is about 80 up. It's gotten so warm and humid lately that the half marathon race I ran last week started at 2AM. The runners here try to get by with soaring temps, coming only out night or the wee hours before dawn. Climate change has been so harsh to all of us runners all across the globe. You actually did well so kudos to you. Don't be so hard on yourself. I wish you well.

    Aw I really feel for you - don't get downhearted! It was SO hot on Wednesday - really really impacts performance. I was glad I wasn't racing that day tbh (had thought about doing that race!). That course also isn't the fastest, my husband has raced there and found it's not as fast as you might expect. You've been putting in the work so it WILL come. Keep the faith and keep being brave and putting it out there ❤

      Aw, thank you so much! I know, it’s so easy to let my own thoughts or others thoughts get the better of me! And yes - where did those hills come from!?! 😆

    I live just south of San Francisco - the high this week is mid 60s, perfect for me but hard for heat training. Whenever I race outside the Bay Area the heat kicks my rear. It’s why I don’t like racing anything longer than 5Ks or 10Ks for the road. I can do longer on trails in the summer but at a much easier effort.
    So I can relate to how you feel … it’s hard to put in all this training and have a race go south because of factors out of your control. But like you said, the good thing about shorter distances is you can race another one next week if you want. This is just another brick in the house of great performances you’re building for yourself. As we all know progress isn’t linear; we need to keep grinding and putting ourselves out there for the magical races that will eventually happen.
    Anyway this is still a big improvement given your last 5K, but it’s totally okay to feel frustrated and disappointed. Hang in there ❤

      Aw thank you so much! This is so nice to hear and definitely makes me feel less alone in this. Summer racing can be so tough to plan, who knew this week would be a heatwave but I know I’ll get em the next time!! 🏃🏻‍♀️

    I ran a local 8K race today with 26c and 90% humidity. I empathize with you on your race. I was soaking wet after the race.

      @resiliencyinrunning  Місяць тому

      That sounds so intense! It was 26-27c for us I believe as well but the U.K. just doesn’t get humidity like this often so it felt so humid! 🥵

      Hackney Half is always notoriously on the first hot weekend of the year!! Heat has such a huge impact on your training so don’t let it be a reflection of you as a runner 🫶🏼

      @@resiliencyinrunningFor sure. I apologize, I didn’t mean for “just a 5k” to sound demeaning. I just meant in regards to the distance itself, but I get everyone needs varying amounts/types of fuel! Keep going strong 💪🏻
