Is it too hot to run in Florida in the Summer? Not if you pay attention to heat, humidity and hydration. That means running early or late, drinking lots of fluids, using sun protection, and taking your workouts inside on especially hot days.

Acclimating to the heat is a big deal, too. You must start slowly and be consistent. Soon, you'll find running in Florida in the Summer isn't terrible. 

Here are some tips for running in the heat of Summer:

• How to Run in Hot Weather
• Make a BUFF Ice Necklace
• Keep a Cool Head on a Hot Day​
