Long Run


Did a long run today in hot weather (90s F). I took in a lot of fluid while running, or so I thought.

My route is designed to visit a lot of water fountains in public parks. And i also made 3 convenience store purchases along the way - 2 Gatorades and 1 Mountain Dew.

Still, when I was done running, I was 3 pounds lighter than when I got up in the morning. That's 3 pints of water missing from my body.

Sometimes your pores are pumping water out faster than your gut can take it in.

When your sweat is dripping,
keep sipping.
