Iced cap?

I've been looking online for tips to keep cool in this weather and one of them said to soak your cap in water and pop it in the freezer for 30 minutes to an hour before you run.

Has anybody tried this and if So, does it work?

I haven't tried that one but I have dunked my whole head in water and that definitely keeps you cool. Must try the iced cap thing 🙂
