snoopy - 2006-07-28 11:52 AM That is why I think I will be walking the Aid stations, I am a massive sweater, and on my longer runs have stopped at water fountains along the way along with drinking from my own water bottle I am hoping to get 30+ oz. per hour that's a good plan, I am planning to do the same at Timberman. Just remember that drinking too much is worst than getting a bit dehydrated
I am not sure if I can drink too much, for instance today's hour run pre run 165 post run 162 and I drank a 16 oz bottle over the course of the run, I have gotten pretty comfortable at having some fluid in my belly, I just can't at high effort, but I don't see that being an issue. If I don't focus on hydration (I don't get thirsty until way too late ) I could and have lost 8-10 pounds on a 2 hour run and though I don't test as rigorously on the bike have seen similar results, which will often explain my dramatic slow downs at similar HR even on shorter runs. |
