If you die bfor the finish, you can’t lose. So the bomb vest is a good approach to winning.

Probably for the better.

How far do you think this:

would have gotten running through the troglodyte-filled streets of Tehran?

Actually, it is anyone who is still standing in spite of heat exhaustion because they are all dressed the same so it really doesn’t matter, does it?

A person’s head is one of the places where the most heat escapes the body.

Here they are running, with impediments to heat loss, something you need when running (heat dissipation).

Sweat on the body helps with this, but I don’t think it’s a good idea to wear that much covering on the head.

If it was during cold weather, it probably wouldn’t be as much an issue.

My granddaughter is a marathoner.

Her girlfriend was running a marathon with her last year and got hyperthermia-——VERY frightening.

I don’t know what all that entails, but I believe it can cause the body to shut down. That’s a very dangerous situation.

Hope the girl came through it ok.
