Florida rules!
Hi guys,
I've been in Tallahassee, Florida for a couple weeks now and it is so good for running. The heat and humidity is unbearable at times but I think its making me stronger running at these temperatures. Some of the guys here compare it to running at altitude and yesterday was the first day that I came to the same conclusion. We were running a fartlek (4x(3mins hard, 1min easy, 2mins hard, 1min easy, 1min hard, 1min easy))at massive forest area and the temperature was in the high 90's and the humidity was 100%! We've got the perfect set up here for improving running. We've got loads of trails for running on, medical back up at the click of the fingers, Ice tanks for after sessions, all the powerade we can swim in etc. The coach has been trying to get me to cut down my training but I told him I wasn't prepared to do that so he's coming round to the Ron Morrison school of running better methods. Vicky Gill is out here too and she's running well (she does her sessions with the guys). Floridians love the kilt too!
Cheers for now,
Andrew Lemoncello
