What happens when you are not hydrated?
Slower response times, poor coordination, lack of focus and problem solving skills. These symptoms are not helpful during a grueling off-road race in the heat. Here are some tips to keep you sharp during your race:
- Start extra hydration at least one week before the race. You can tell that you are getting enough water when your pee is pale yellow to almost clear.
- Limit caffeine and alcohol.
- Replace electrolytes. The more you sweat without replacing electrolytes, the faster you will get dehydrated. Use a supplement like Skratch Sport Hydration.
- Don’t over hydrate. Take small, frequent sips to avoid over drinking. For the ultimate race hydration solution, check out the Fluid Logic system.
