I have decided I am not pushing myself so hard outdoors anymore trying to get everything accomplished fast in one or two days. It will all get done eventually.
It's a good idea to take things slower when the heat and humidity are high. For next time, think about sports drinks. On days like that, you need to replace your salt and electrolytes lost through sweat. Maybe also keep a small piece of candy in your pocket and pop it when you feel lightheaded.
