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.

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!
