In regards to catching. Make sure you're instincts are there regarding checking and differentiating what level the kicks are coming at or don't fucking try. If you're going to catch, MOVE with the kick. Don't stand there like a fucking mug and take the shot on the ribs because if that boy can kick, you won't be doing that often and if your defense hinges on catching mid kicks you'll...have a problem.
If he's a lot taller, my personal preference (people are always 3-6 inches taller then me due to my weight- its glandualr you fuckers ) isn't to catch but to either check and close the distance or block say a left mid kick (from your pov), drop the right hand over and catch it then step through and kick the shit out of his left leg he's standing on and then stay in close.

Holding it and fucking about is a bad move if his reach is greater

He actually hit me a few times in sparring yesterday because he was changing levels really well (high kick, low kick, middle). I also need to work on staying out of the clinch with him because when I get inside he ties me up quickly, and he gets positions more easily with his height.

It just makes scheduling training and working out a little tricky. Early morning or early evening is about it. A mid-day jog or something is risky.
And we tend to use evap coolers here in AZ cause it's so dry they actually work. But if there's any humidity in the air, they stop functioning correctly and it's just hot and humid then. My gyms (Judo, boxing, weight room) all use evap coolers, so...

I went to a mountain bike race once in the Las Vegas region and they had that fucking race in the middle of July out in the desert under scorching sun. THAT was miserable. I still took third in my age division.
