Hi guys!

I've got an ultramarathon this Saturday (62k, 38.5 miles), and the weather forecast is predicting 28 degrees (82F) with very little cloud cover. I live in the UK so we're not used to weather like this on a daily basis, so I've not really been able to acclimatise to anything like this so far this year. I've done training runs in moderate heat (about 20 degrees) in the last month or so, but nothing like what's predicted this Saturday.

Training has gone well, but I am mindful that spending 6-7 hours out in heat like this is going to be tricky to manage. Naturally I will dose up on electrolytes and water, but is there anything else I should be mindful of? I'm also wary of my pace as well, and how that might need to be adjusted.
