I remember two women collapsing...not quite on their faces right after crossing...but it didn't take long before they were on the ground, under the med tent, wrapped in a space blanket.

Hey fishy, would you rather wind or the temps that you're going to get next week? I was looking at forcasts and it looks like highs of 110F in Vegas for when I'm there.
We had 92deg with 45mph wind today.

I am not sure how long I can ride in 110* weather... Either I get up early enough for a ride (just as the sun is coming up) or I won't be riding. So I guess it depends if I'm able to adjust my sleeping pattern or not. Actually I'd probably take the temperature over wind.

I'll take the wind over extreme heat any day of the week.

Making adjustments to the A race calendar will require some HTFU.
I'm 2 weeks behind already.
We'll start with a brick tomorrow of a 20m ride and 1m run.

In my (what seems like) never ending quest for a job, I just applied at Facebook
And I was able to ride 10 miles today with no pain/discomfort in my back

Well looks like I'll be setting on my butt all day. My feet are screwed up, I can barely walk riding would be excruciating.
