I'd try to either get down there a little early and get acclimated to the heat, or be prepared to run a very conservative race. I ran the Runner's World half marathon in Allentown, PA in April of this year and at the finish it was 84 degrees. Literally days before I was training in a hat and gloves. It turned out to be a brutal race. Post a reply on the Bulletin Board | Send email reply to Jim
