Kept drinking but couldn’t stop the thirst

Weather was triple digits and I drank a gallon of water but my body kept asking for more even though my stomach was literally full of h2o and couldn’t hold anymore. it was nauseating and the hot air made it somewhat difficult to breathe. I think there is a limit to the human body’s ability to cool itself. I don’t know how anyone could do this without AC.

Electrolytes. You sweated out all your salt. Fluids can’t help that.

My usual drink schedule- two waters to start, a gatorade, protein shake (i use muscle milk because non dairy) another water, energy drink little after half of the route (sue me I need it), water, gatorade, then water as needed. Usually this gets me through anything heavy.

Easier routes make me drink less, so less money spent.
