Running and Jogging
April can be a tricky time to race a marathon because, although the dates of marathons are usually chosen to coincide with cool temperatures, you may have the unfortunate luck of getting an extremely hot and humid race day. Running during those conditions in April is even more difficult than doing it in July or August because, after training in the cold all winter, most runners are not prepared to run in the heat and humidity. I heard about at least two marathons (Southern Indiana and St. Louis) that were canceled this past weekend because race organizers were concerned about runners who were not acclimatized.
