The past few days have been nothing short of gorgeous. Flowers are blooming, birds are chirping, the sun is shining. But every year around the same time I get taken over by the pollen in the air. I am terribly allergic and suffer with the amount of these particles in the air. I am sneezy, my eyes and nose itch, and I feel a bit lethargic.
But I will take the warm weathr over the cold anytime, so I am very much looking forward to training in the heat - I do far better in warmer races, even hot ones, than the ones where the temps dip below 50F. I guess being Brazilian my body is just more used to hot, humid, more tropical conditions.
