Master the race conditions with these Beijing-specific preparation tactics
Begin fluid + electrolyte loading 48-72h before race to preempt high sweat rates
Schedule 2-3 heat-simulated workouts (30-35°C + high humidity) in saunas or hot environments
Practice sled work under humid conditions with chalk/rosin for grip security
Use RPE over pace splits - heat distorts early pacing
Prioritize shade and cooling immediately post-race with electrolyte rehydration
Race-specific preparation emphasizing extreme heat adaptation and humidity management. Advanced hydration protocols with 48-72h pre-loading. Grip training for tropical sweat conditions. RPE-based pacing strategies for thermal stress management and heat carryover effects.
Hot and humid late summer - heat stress during entry, warm-up, and exits affects thermoregulation
Begin fluid + electrolyte loading 48-72h before race to preempt high sweat rates. Schedule 2-3 heat-simulated workouts (30-35°C + high humidity) in saunas or hot environments.
