The pits are rather comfortable and air conditioned. It was the gym that was the issue.

Worse.

It was a strangely cool and gray weekend last year so with the temperature down outside it was rather pleasant inside. The heat took a vacation and made an appearance 9in milder form) at IRI instead.
Steve purchased some cooling fans that spray a fine mist to keep the temperature down in the gym.
