Thank you so much. For the ZUT I didn't specifically do heat training because I didnt expect it to be so extremely hot as it turned out in the end. But for my Western States 2022 I did a training camp in Greece and also followed Jason Koop's sauna protocol. Can't say if it helped though. Most important means is ice cooling and drinking on race day. So the crew is absolutely crucial in such heat races....
There's no beating The Heat, sounds like you did a great job of working with it though.
What did you do in the lead up to help you handle it better on race day?
