Environmental Fitness is the ability to perform your tasks in any operational environment. We all know instinctively that our environment affects our performance; running a mile in 95 degree heat isn’t the same as an indoor track. We all need to be aware of environmental challenges and make sure they do not pose a threat to our health.
Some environmental factors affect our physical, mental, or spiritual health, and some just affect our ability to complete our job or mission. A well-organized work environment can also optimize performance, enhance mental or spiritual wellness, and help avoid potential hazards. Time spent organizing your environment is likely to pay off in the long term.

Dear Doc: I suffer from horrible allergies every year and I've just changed duty stations to an area that I've been told is especially bad for them in the spring. I've tried over-the-counter meds for years and nothing seems to work. With things starting to bloom, I'm almost afraid to go outside. How can I keep my allergies in check and make sure I can finally enjoy the warm weather in the next few months?
