When we lived in Arkansas years ago, I played softball with a bunch of lawyers. Often the temperature would hit 100 with high levels of humidity. We would play and I loved it. Now, 40 years later, I play in 85 with humidity at the 70% level and wonder how I did it since it is tough today

You also get acclimated to where you are currently. I used to run in the heat in AR, FL, and MS and then moved to Germany and then to Texas. I couldn't get adjusted in Texas and had to bribe the fitness test NCO with beer to meet me at 5AM to test.

Instead of battling what we can't control how about learning how to deal with it.

I see LTC Charlie Brown said we should learn how to deal with it. Well the facts are we are trying to deal with the Climate change but people many of which are here do not believe in it. They fight it then complain about how the climate is changing.
