"When performed safely, however, heat training can have extraordinary effects. This phenomena fascinates Chris Minson, a professor of human physiology at the University of Oregon, who studies heat acclimation responses in athletes. According to his research, heat training can expand blood plasma volume, but Minson says there also seem to be inexplicable changes to the heart’s left ventricle, which helps to increase oxygen delivery to the muscles."

THirsty THirteen #2 is this THursday, leaving from Wilson Park at THree THirty. Cold water and electrolytes provided at start/finish.

See you THere!

Is heat better than altitude? The science seems to say so.
