Summary:In this episode of the Athletes Compass podcast, hosts Paul Warloski and Dr. Paul Laursen, along with guest Marjaana Rakai, delve into the science and strategies behind heat acclimatization for endurance athletes. They discuss the physiological processes that occur when the body is exposed to heat, including increased heart rate and sweating, and the importance of evaporative cooling. The episode also covers genetic factors influencing heat tolerance, practical tips for acclimatizing to heat, and the benefits of active versus passive heat adaptation methods. Additionally, they explore the impact of fitness levels, nutritional strategies, and the critical balance between training stress and recovery.Key Takeaways:Evaporation is Key: Cooling occurs through the evaporation of sweat, not just sweating itself. Humidity hinders this process.Genetic Factors: Some people have a genetic predisposition for better heat tolerance, influenced by heat shock proteins.Active Acclimatization: Engaging in aerobic activities in the heat is more effective than passive methods like sitting in a sauna.Training Adaptations: Aim for 5-14 days of heat exposure to see adaptations such as lower core temperature, increased sweat rate, and improved performance.Hydration and Nutrition: Consume cold fluids and consider increasing carbohydrate intake during exercise in the heat due to higher glycolysis rates.Avoid High Intensity in Heat: High-intensity workouts in heat can be overly stressful; focus on aerobic sessions in hot conditions.Progressive Exposure: Gradually increase heat exposure time to adapt without overloading the body.Mental Preparation: Mentally prepare for heat challenges and pace accordingly during races to manage core temperature.From Lab to Real World: Heat Acclimation Considerations for Elite Athletes - PubMed

Part 8 of Everyday Everest, my new Podcast series, drops today with chapters 25, 26 and 27. I'll continue my annual coverage as usual. Based on my 2020 Virtual Everest series, Everyday Everest follows a fictional team of nine climbers and their personal Sherpas from leaving home to trekking to base camp, acclimatizing, and finally, on their summit push, returning home. I'll have a twenty-minute episode a few times weekly for the next two months. In Part 8, our protagonist, Harper, and the team arrive at Camp 2 to continue acclimatization. The Mt. Everest Guides lead, John Paul, begins to explain how acclimatization works: "'Acclimatization' is a strange word that evokes many emotions. Fundamentally it means adapting the human body to an altitude where it was not designed to survive. Even though the percentage of oxygen in the air on Everest's summit is the same as on a beach in Rio, there are fewer molecules available to inhale. That's because there is less atmospheric pressure; thus, the oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide molecules spread out. It's the opposite of what a diver experiences with the pressure increasing as a diver goes deeper. Harper feels more weight, more pressure, whereas a climber has less available oxygen. That's why it's called 'thin air.'" Climb On! Alan Memories are Everything --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/alan-arnette1/support

In this podcast episode, Dennis and Ian discuss heat injuries and illnesses. They cover the background science of body heat and heat transfer, as well as the different types of heat injuries, including heat cramps, heat syncope, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. They emphasize the importance of hydration and urine color as indicators of hydration status. The treatment for heat stroke involves cooling the body as quickly as possible, with immersion in ice water or the use of ice sheets being the most effective methods. They also discuss the importance of acclimatization to heat and the need for prompt evacuation in cases of heat stroke. Takeaways Heat injuries and illnesses can range from minor heat cramps to life-threatening heat stroke. The body dissipates heat through radiation, conduction, convection, and evaporation. Hydration is crucial in preventing heat injuries, and urine color can be used as an indicator of hydration status. Heat stroke is a medical emergency that requires immediate cooling of the body. Acclimatization to heat and proper planning can help prevent heat injuries.

In the first book of the series, Apollo met the demigod Meg McCaffrey, a 13-year-old girl, who became his “master” after she learned Apollo must serve someone to regain his godhood. To become immortal again, Apollo must consult the oracles, the chief sources of wisdom and future-telling in the series' universe. Since the main oracles are under the control of three evil emperors from ancient Rome, Apollo and Meg go on a quest to find hidden sources of prophecy. By the end of the first book in the series, Apollo has received a prophecy from the Oracle of the Grove of Dodona but has been separated from Meg. The prophecy of Dodona guides Apollo and his friends Leo and Calypso to Indiana. In Indianapolis, the three are attacked by blemmyae, monsters under the control of Commodus, the second of the trio of Roman emperors. Apollo and the others are rescued by Emmie and Josephine, two former Hunters of Artemis, who run a safe house called the Waystation.

Greetings, Summit Leaders. We are climbing to reach our summit as leaders in business and life. There are parallels to the actual climb in our lives and on Mt Everest. Recently, I listened to Alison Levine, the author of On the Edge - Leadership Lessons from Mount Everest and Other Extreme Environments share insights that helped her lead a team in reaching the summit of Mt. Everest. Your vision, our company's vision, and our clients' needs call us to the climb. The attributes of teamwork, flexibility, humility, agility, trust, and commitment are essential to a successful ascent. Their commitment empowers great leaders. Why? They understand that their success will impact themselves and others who are watching and following them. Teamwork can blend hard work, individual skills, talents, and gifts to pursue and attain the goal. Their care for each other enables them to become like-minded, love each other, being in one accord and one mind in sharing the same vision. Acclimatization, as we climb, is essential. It requires you to go backward before you climb higher. Here is how the process works. Climbing Mt. Everest involves going back to prepare to go higher. You start the climb from base camp to Camp 1, which is around 19,500 feet. The team spends the night at this elevation and descends back to base camp. The next stage requires climbing to Camp 2, which is around 21,000 feet, staying there for a while, and then returning to base camp. This process of staggering your ascent is preparing your body to climb higher by gradually acclimatize to lower oxygen levels at these elevations. Practiced patience and perseverance enable us to keep going when we cannot see the summit. We lift our eyes to the hills - from where does our help come? Perhaps our first attempt is not yielding the results we hoped for; we are still moving forward. "Leadership involves compensating for your weakness and helping other people do the same for themselves." Alison Levine, ON THE EDGE We use this time of acclimating to review our steps, practice for the next ascent, collaborate to build our knowledge and wisdom, which prepare us to go higher. The practiced patience is similar to a top-performing team repeating the fundamentals of their sport. Here are three contributors to a successful climb. 1. Perspective: A victory mindset understands when it is wise to wait. Think about who we are and what we will become. Envision the vision! 2. Purpose: The reason for the climb is the fulfillment of the call. Many benefit from your success and growth. 3. Passion: Revival occurs when we ignite the right motivation and gain new strength for going higher. Commitment is empowering. Being committed activates all the resources you will need for the journey. What's needed will come to us at just the right time. Our job is to stay in step with the process. Keep the faith. Summit Leaders - Let's keep climbing! We will experience the glory of the summit! Victory!

In addition to the permanent residents, Canada’s immigration program provides for the temporary entry of foreign nationals. These temporary residents contribute to Canada’s economic, social and cultural development and are most commonly in Canada through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. In 2013, over 100,000 individuals were working in Canada as temporary residents through this program. The occupations they held ranged from live-in caregivers, agricultural workers to other lower and higher skilled work levels. People come to Canada for a variety of reasons but the common denominator is that they hope for a better life for themselves and their children. New immigrants, temporary workers and refugees to Canada can face many more issues as newcomers who come from another culture, who may have fled war or persecution, and who may not speak English or French. In Canada, there is a well-established link between low income and ethno-racial status. In addition, the emotional upheaval of relocation is also well documented. It is common to feel a variety of emotions when newcomers first arrive in Canada including: discomfort, helplessness, frustration, fear, insecurity, uncertainty about how to behave, a sense that your cultural beliefs and values are being challenged and a sense that things are not predictable. Feelings of stress are common, especially in the first several months. Immigrants will face many challenges, especially if they have to learn English or French, or improve their language skills. They may have to take a first job or live in a home that is different from what they expected. They may need to get more education or training to get a job and build their new life. Emily Low and Joseph Jilitovich work with newcomers in the London area, working with Collège Boréal and the Cross Cultural Learner Centre, respectively. Through this video presentation, Emily and Joseph explain the difficulties faced by new immigrants and the supports and services that are available for them when they arrive. Emotional support is important and distress centres can provide a service in helping support newcomers as they adjust to their new environment. Questions for Further Consideration: 1. Moving from one’s home country to another can be a traumatic experience. There are many things to let go of and changes to make in the process. What do individuals and families need to deal with, as part of this move? Families leave behind all that is familiar and they may also have difficulty anticipating what lies ahead for them. Consider some of the emotions they may experience and the impact associated with moving: the pulling up of centuries old family roots the breaking of deep, meaningful ties the leaving of the familiar and comfortable for the unknown the disorientation that follows the strangeness of the new environment, and the lack of familiarity with the local resources. Apart from meeting the day-to-day physical needs of new immigrants, the emotional strain of relocation can be a very real and challenging one to deal with. What type of help is available for new immigrants coming into Canada? As a newcomer to Canada, immigrants may be eligible for assistance under the Resettlement Assistance Program. Various programs and services are available to help them become a participating member of Canadian society as quickly as possible. These may include: loans to help them travel to Canada assistance upon entering Canada, counselling and cultural orientation, information and orientation, referral to community resources, translation and interpretation, language training, and job-related services. Each program and service has its own eligibility requirements. If a person was sponsored as a refugee, they should contact their sponsoring organization to find out about settlement assistance. They can also get information on settlement assistance by contacting a service organization directly. In Ontario, a list of the organizations can be found at: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/refugees/outside/resettle-providers.asp#on (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/refugees/help-within-canada/government-assisted-refugee-program/providers.html#on) How can distress centres and other service providers offer support to newcomers to Canada? Service providers and distress centre call responders need to reflect on how different their reality might be compared to that of a newcomer, even if they are immigrants themselves. When speaking with newcomers, be aware not to stereotype. Each individual and family has a different background and different needs. There is sometimes more diversity within a culture than across cultures. Do not make assumptions about what they know or don’t know. Find out what they need in order for them to make informed decisions. Keep in mind that some of the behaviour of children and parents may be related to traumatic situations they may have faced in their country of origin or through their migratory path. Help people understand the various agencies and systems in place in Canada – settlement services, social, educational, health, legal, etc. or provide them with the resources to obtain this information. Newcomers may need assistance with issues like how to access public transportation or how to fill out a form, or they may need to connect with others who share a similar experience or culture, who can help them better understand. The specific attention needed varies with each individual. Glossary: Newcomer Immigrants : are people who migrate to Canada from another country outside North America and can enter the country as Permanent Residents, Accepted Refugees or Refugee claimants. Convention Refugee: convention refugees are people who are outside their home country or the country where they normally live, and who are unwilling to return because of a well-founded fear of persecution based on: race; religion; political opinion; nationality; or membership in a particular social group, such as women or people of a particular sexual orientation. Person in need of protection: a person in need of protection is a person in Canada whose removal to their home country or country where they normally live would subject them personally to a danger of torture; a risk to their life; or a risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment. Acclimatization : a process whereimmigrants deal with their immediate, basic needs and are becoming familiar with their new environment, including customs, language, governmental and social systems, rights and responsibilities, even the weather. Adaptation : A process whereimmigrants gain more in-depth and specific knowledge about their new environment, reassess personal goals, develop social networks and become more independent. Resettlement Assistance Programs (RAP):Various programs and services offered by the Canadian government to help a newcomer become a participating member of Canadian society as quickly as possible. They help refugees and protected persons resettle in Canada by providing them with financial assistance to cover the costs of accommodations, essential clothing, household effects and other living expenses. Services are delivered by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC).

He was the first person to sail single-handed non-stop westwards around the world (1971), on a 59-foot boat called British Steel.   Blyth was born in Hawick, Roxburghshire. He joined the British Army Parachute Regiment when he was 18 and was promoted to Sergeant at the age of 21. In 1966, while in the army, Blyth, together with Captain John Ridgway, rowed across the North Atlantic in a 20 ft open dory called English Rose III. After successfully completing this in 92 days, Blyth was awarded the British Empire Medal (BEM).   Rowing the Atlantic first became mainstream when the first Atlantic Rowing Race was launched by Sir Chay Blyth, after reflecting on his own ocean row that propelled him to international fame. This was the Port St. Charles, Barbados Atlantic Rowing Race. Thirty double-handed teams lined up at the start line in a "one design" rowing boat just outside Los Gigantes marina on Sunday 12 October 1997. The race was won by Kiwi Challenge, rowed by Rob Hamill and Phil Stubbs after 41 days at sea. Second place went to the French crew of Atlantik Challenge, Joseph Le Guen and his partner, a double convicted murderer, Pascal Blond.   Fast forward to today.    Terence Steinberg is preparing to compete in a 3,000 mile rowing race across the Atlantic.  As you will hear he is doing this for the UWC (United World Colleges), which is a global movement that makes education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future.    The movement began in 1962 when Atlantic College in Wales, UK admitted its first students. The Cold War raged and UWC set out to bring together young people from different nations to act as champions of peace through an education based on shared learning, collaboration, and understanding. UWC has since gained global recognition a catalyst for international understanding, and today teaches 3,000 college students each year in 17 locations on 4 continents. Students come from more than 155 countries, each selected for their demonstrated promise and potential. The Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge: The World’s Toughest Row. The premier event in ocean rowing – A challenge that will take you more than 3000 Miles west from San Sebastian in La Gomera, Canary Islands (28oN 18oW) to Nelson’s Dockyard English Harbour, Antigua & Barbuda (17oN 61oW).

How much of that was due to a loss of altitude acclimatization? How quickly to make an altitude acclimatization?  http://www.bodyresults.com/e2deacc.asp According to Lawrence Armstrong, PhD, in his book, Performing in Extreme Environments (1), the rate of disappearance of the body’s adaptations to high altitude varies widely from person to person; just as it’s difficult to tell who exactly will experience signs of altitude illness, it’s hard to know how long your acclimatized state will last once you descend from high altitude. If you spend less than a day or two at altitude (say, on a moderate climb of a peak like Baker or Rainier, where most people return to sea level within 24 hours of reaching the summit), your body will not have had enough time to permanently adapt to the altitude. The composition of the blood changes after about 2 weeks of altitude exposure by producing more red blood cells and hemoglobin (the iron-protein compound that transports oxygen) (3) but most people climbing peaks in the Pacific Northwest are only exposed to elevation for about 3-4 days at a time.   Training acclimatization time needs to be longer as the altitude becomes higher. Training for 14 days at or above 6,500 feet (as at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs) and 28 days at or above 8,000 feet are currently the best recommendations for athletes wishing to compete at similar elevations, while complete adaptation to the extreme altitude of 13,000 feet is possible after a continuous stay for 14 months (3). Obviously, climbers have a tiny fraction of this time open to them.   One study cited by Armstrong indicates that the red blood cell volume of high-altitude natives (people who spend most of their lives above 7000 ft) decreases as quickly as ten days after spending time at sea level. Someone spending several hours to perhaps a day or two at altitude simply won’t have enough time for any long-lasting physiological changes. Those who choose to trek in Nepal, however, or participate in an expedition-type climb of a peak over 15,000 ft will have to spend a substantial amount of time adapting to the altitude in order to prevent altitude sickness. This is why climbers who gradually ascend their first peak in Alaska, Bolivia, Chile, or the Himalayas in order to get properly acclimatized can then speed up subsequent peaks, because the body’s ability to perform physical work at high altitude can persist for a few weeks (2). Through personal discussion with our African guide, cook, and porters on Mt. Kilimanjaro, and in talking with local Northwest guides and rangers who spend a lot of time on the mountains, we learned that they typically spend a week in the mountains above 10,000 ft and a week back home; their acclimatization and improved cardiovascular function may persist for several months after returning from altitude, and allows them to make subsequent trips quite easily without needing extra time to adapt. https://www2.palomar.edu/anthro/adapt/adapt_3.htm How quickly to lose altitude advantage? How does living at altitude affect how quickly you lose or gain altitude adaptations? https://www.princeton.edu/~oa/safety/altitude.html What is High Altitude?   Altitude is defined on the following scale High (8,000 - 12,000 feet [2,438 - 3,658 meters]), Very High (12,000 - 18,000 feet [3,658 - 5,487 meters]), and Extremely High (18,000+ feet [5,500+ meters]). Since few people have been to such altitudes, it is hard to know who may be affected. There are no specific factors such as age, sex, or physical condition that correlate with susceptibility to altitude sickness. Some people get it and some people don't, and some people are more susceptible than others. Most people can go up to 8,000 feet (2,438 meters) with minimal effect. If you haven't been to high altitude before, it's important to be cautious. If you have been at that altitude before with no problem, you can probably return to that altitude without problems as long as you are properly acclimatized.   What Causes Altitude Illnesses?   The concentration of oxygen at sea level is about 21% and the barometric pressure averages 760 mmHg. As altitude increases, the concentration remains the same but the number of oxygen molecules per breath is reduced. At 12,000 feet (3,658 meters) the barometric pressure is only 483 mmHg, so there are roughly 40% fewer oxygen molecules per breath. In order to properly oxygenate the body, your breathing rate (even while at rest) has to increase. This extra ventilation increases the oxygen content in the blood, but not to sea level concentrations. Since the amount of oxygen required for activity is the same, the body must adjust to having less oxygen. In addition, for reasons not entirely understood, high altitude and lower air pressure causes fluid to leak from the capillaries which can cause fluid build-up in both the lungs and the brain. Continuing to higher altitudes without proper acclimatization can lead to potentially serious, even life-threatening illnesses. Acclimatization   What is altitude illness? The major cause of altitude illnesses is going too high too fast. Given time, your body can adapt to the decrease in oxygen molecules at a specific altitude. This process is known as acclimatization and generally takes 1-3 days at that altitude. For example, if you hike to 10,000 feet (3,048 meters), and spend several days at that altitude, your body acclimatizes to 10,000 feet (3,048 meters). If you climb to 12,000 feet (3,658 meters), your body has to acclimatize once again. A number of changes take place in the body to allow it to operate with decreased oxygen. The depth of respiration increases. Pressure in pulmonary arteries is increased, "forcing" blood into portions of the lung which are normally not used during sea level breathing. The body produces more red blood cells to carry oxygen, The body produces more of a particular enzyme that facilitates the release of oxygen from hemoglobin to the body tissues.   Are there genetic dispositions to altitude? There is considerable variability between individuals and between populations in their ability to adjust to the environmental stresses of high mountain regions.  Usually, the populations that are most successful are those whose ancestors have lived at high altitudes for thousands of years.  This is the case with some of the indigenous peoples living in the Andes Mountains of Peru and Bolivia as well as the Tibetans and Nepalese in the Himalaya Mountains.  The ancestors of many people in each of these populations have lived above 13,000 feet (ca. 4000 meters) for at least 2,700 years.

Additionally, a series of potencial nutrition and hydration interventions may also optimize the adaptation to altered environments. Similarly, the use of heat acclimation to optimize performance in hot/humid performance in hot/humid environmental conditions is well supported by scientific evidence, appearing to have positive outcomes.

When summer rears its oppressive head of high humidity and heat, fellow runners must take to the road with the solar conditions in mind and heed the warnings to ensure a safe and comfortable run.  Acclimatization is an important precursor to taking to the hotter than usual roads, and the better our bodies can adapt to the heat, the greater our performance will be once we put these bodies to the test in a race. There will come a day when, here in the Northeast, the days will shorten, the leaves will fall and the cold harsh reality of winter will settle around us: but not today, because today the earth tilts sunward in our favor, today the road heats up and our bodies have to adapt to the time before us: because our running goes on despite the conditions that exist outside our doors: we are runners, this is what we do, and our bodies have the incredible ability to adapt to the climate which occurs here in the summertime.
