IM Canada Team Heat Impacted Run Pacing Data

IM Canada team I have created a spread sheet to provide Heat Impacted Run Pacing Guidance for those that desire it. All you need to is click on the link and to the right of your name enter your vDOT and to the right of that enter the rough time you expect to start the run. 

 

Remember due to the time trial start you will likely be getting in the water 5-45 min after the start of the swim at 7:00 AM.   Take your estimate for start time + Swim time + T1 Bike time + T2 to give you a best guess for when you will start the run course. Round this to the nearest hour. As example you expect to start the run at 3:20 , round this to 3:00 for the spreadsheet.

 

I will use your run start time plus your vDOT to determining the hours which you will be out on the course. For those hours I will enter your heat adjusted pacing into the spreadsheet for each of the hours.   I will do that this Friday using last year’s temperature data. I will then update the sheet 7 days out from the race and the day before with the current temperature forecasts.

 


Click on the second TAB that is for IM Canada to enter your data.

    Jenn,  - Sorry my bad!  I copied my post to the IM LOU group and missed that I had called out the time trial start for the swim which does not apply to the Canada mass start swim.
