We all know heat slows us down-but what about the cold?
Study:
Running time to exhaustion in temps from 20°C to -14°C.
Result:
~0°C temps out performed -14°C by ~10%!
It's less predictable, but temps as low as the ones we've been experiencing significantly ⬇️performance.

The Canadian women’s marathon record has dropped by more than 5 min since 2013.
Strength training in endurance athletes: It doesn't improve your ability to consume oxygen, but under the right circumstances, it can improve how efficiently you use the oxygen you do bring in.
Training in the heat makes you faster in heat...and cold!
Heat acclimation triggers an increase in plasma volume (fluid content of blood).
This volume spike results in increased stretching and recoil of your blood vessels, enhancing transportation to your muscles!
Ran @RunWaterloo 10k today at a well-articulated #event. Good time, strong finish! Best part was running with my 14yrold in his 1st 10k! Thanks #volunteers! #sports#events#running And to those #parents pushing strollers, I've been there...one day, they'll run beside you ❤️🏃♀️😊
