Coach tips
- ·Warm rain: skip the shell, it traps heat like a rubber suit, so embrace getting wet in light wicking fabric.
- ·Wet fabric in the heat means chafing, so apply anti-chafe balm and wear a brimmed cap, with no cotton anywhere.
- ·High dew point: the air is muggy and sweat won't evaporate well, so ease your pace and drink more than usual
- ·Light colors reflect heat: wear white or light grey if possible
- ·Consider a visor or running cap for sun protection
- ·Hydrate before, during, and after your run. Ease your pace. Your body works harder to cool itself in the heat.
- ·Heat index is high: run early or late, and stop if you feel dizzy or stop sweating
- ·UV is high (8): apply SPF 50+ and wear a brimmed hat

Running in Miami: what the weather does to your run
Miami is heat and humidity nearly year-round. The dew point, not the air temperature, is what wrecks a midday run here, so early mornings and minimal, sweat-wicking kit are the rule. Winter is the reward: warm, breezy, and close to perfect for shorts-and-singlet running.
