Getting ready for warrior dash


Recommended Posts

So, some friends and I are going to warrior dash in august. I have to get ready and need to get back in full running mode. I'll be posting up my exercises here every day I complete one. Any tips from people who have done warrior dash are greatly appreciated.

Coincidentally, I'm following the same plan - about 6 weeks out, I'm going to start running again. It's just too damn hot to run now. It was 95 by 10am this morning, and we hit 104 plus heat index by mid-afternoon.

The warrior dash I signed up for is in October, so I'm going to start running again in September to get ready for it.

Yeah, it was really really hot here today as well. It got up to 94 and there is no way I'm going out and running in that. I work graveyard so what I'm planning on is just running after I get off work. That should help me beat the heat. Good luck on your training as well!

I know you were referring to Sumdawg, but this kind of relates to mine as I was worried about a cold day. The one I'm doing is in mid-October, and it's not uncommon to have a freeze or two (or snow). So I picked an afternoon heat to be on the safe side.

Good point! I shouldn't be making excuses. However, I'm just not going to make it a point to go running in that kind of heat when I don't have to. I wasn't saying that I wouldn't under any circumstances.
