Figure 3: Relationship between Wet Bulb Globe Temperature and Exertional Heat Stroke.

Figure 3:

Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (°C) is along the x-axis and exertional heat stroke encounters per 1000 finishers is along the y-axis. Each circle represents one race, with different color circles representing different events: blue is BAA 10-km; red is Beach to Beacon; green is Finish at the 50. Circle diameters are proportional to race size. There was a small positive, but not significant, association between wet bulb globe temperature and exertional heat stroke events.
