For the last few years I have been putting my attention on changing my story to heat. Before I would run endless stories about how this body is not designed for temperatures in the hundreds. That was fun until there were so many days with temperatures in the hundreds. So I figured out I better change the story.
The most obvious thing is that extremely hot days are perfect for extremely cold rivers. Since that’s one of my favorite things in the world to be in water, I definitely can see the benefit of a hot day. I’ve also trained myself to know that this body adjust quickly to heat, can sleep even when nights do not cool off. At this point I’m able to be outside in 91° heat without discomfort. Yesterday we ate outside in 95°. Freaking miracle! Many thanks to my Joy buddy for supporting me and keeping my attention on Joy rather than heat.
And many thanks to my buddy Franco who Supported me in knowing How beautifully our bodies can adjust to whatever circumstances demand
