Cooling hat helps me to run in a marathon race
I felt like I could keep a steady pace and I knew I would be able to keep that up for the length of the run.
When I was preparing myself to run a marathon, I was surprised when my wife gave me an evaporative cooling hat. The amazing thing about this cooling hat is that it has a built in lining that holds water when you get it wet. The lining releases the water gradually providing the perfect cooling comfort, or so that’s what this product claimed to do. It looked like just a regular ball cap, but it had a special top that reflected harmful UV rays and allowed you not to become overheated. So I soaked the cooling hat with ice-cold water before I started the marathon run. I have to say, it felt so wonderful on such a blazing hot day. The sun was really pounding down and I could tell a lot of the other runners were feeling the heat. Fortunately for me, I had this cooling hat and it was keeping me roughly 20 degrees cooler than I would have been without the hat! I’m so glad that my wife bought the cooling hat for me because it really gave me an edge on such a hot day. I felt like I could keep a steady pace and I knew I would be able to keep that up for the length of the run. After about two hours, I felt that my cooling hat was losing its steam. Fortunately, there were people handing out ice-cold waters to the runners. I took two bottles, one to soak my cooling hat and one to drink! With the hat being soaked again with ice-cold water, I felt completely refreshed and cool! I felt a boost of energy towards the halfway mark of the marathon and I really caught some speed. I actually came in second place in the marathon and I noticed the first place guy also had a cooling hat!
