Re: Could I get constructive criticism on my OLY nutrition from past weekend? [Economist]
Are you (as three possibilities that I have experienced and that I haven't seen here yet):
1) under-trained (and I'm just saying, it is kind of early in the season)
or
2) over-tired
or
3) under-prepared for heat?

Your race numbers are like my race numbers, and I often suffer on the run. In general, it's due to the heat and my low training hours in general and low run mileage in particular (I'm not implying yours is low, this is just my experience).

September is great for me: a little cooler, and I round into shape by then...

Last year, I addressed both low mileage/load and heat strategies and improved performance significantly in about six weeks, even as the summer got hotter.

ETA: I just remembered the mailbox issue. See my sig: happens to the best of them.

(By the way, I race this Saturday, and if I dial back the bike, I should have a good run. I'm just not in race shape yet and it will be hot. But I guarantee I'll overcook it and blow up on the run. [I'm a scorpion, that's what I do, I just can't help going as fast as I can on the bike.] If I can remember, I'll share the misery with you in a few days.)
