Yesterday while the athletes racing against humidity and heat, I went along the course with my photo camera. It is amazing how relaxing it can be to shoot photos instaed of filming, much easier. Fritz you are so right! On my way I met students of ECU. They are part of a work group performing a study on athletes in muggy heat. They were in charge to make a lot of measurements yesterday. As I understood 24 voluteers are enrolled in the study. These athletes had to swallow a capsule that allows the scientists to make some conclusions about the absorption activity of the gut during a race in the heat and in high humidity.
