Heatstroke Prevention Measures
Consider bringing a hat and/or parasol and taking advantage of portable fans and other cooling products.
Wear clothes that are breathable, moisture wicking, and quick drying.

Trainers with Young Children
Trainers who have young children with them should pay particularly close attention to their well-being.
A child’s ability to regulate their own body temperature is not fully developed. This makes them more susceptible to heat stroke than adults. Please take extra care to keep them cool.
Keep an eye out for symptoms or unusual changes in their behavior. If you notice flushed skin or excessive sweating, please head to a cool area and rest for a while.
Beware of reflected heat. If the air temperature is 32℃ (90°F) at head-level for an adult, it will be 35℃ (95°F) for a child. Children in strollers will experience similar effects based on how far off the ground they are.
Choose appropriate clothing. Wear cool clothing that can be removed as needed.
Make sure they stay hydrated.
