Tonight's running club track workout is going to be hot hot hot!! I am not sure about the workout but possibilities include:
2x 4km at tempo pace OR
2x 1mi at 5 mi pace w/ 6x200m at race pace
Good thing I have the perfect way to hydrate while at work!
How do you make sure you are hydrated?? Happy Tuesday!
Kind of looks like our forcast! We have had 80-100% humidity too which is horrible! Woke up to tons of moisture on the windows this morning... feels like louisiana! Glad your hydrating!
ReplyDeleteMy non-running self loves that hot, hot heat, but the runner in me is thankful that we are having a cool summer out here. I keep a jug of water on my desk and try to finish it every day.
ReplyDeleteLooks like our forecast as well. Blah
ReplyDeleteI love my Diet Dr Pepper... but this time of year I am forced to back off the soda and drink a TON of water.
It was hot enough for me on the track this morning. Good luck on the workout! Drink up!!
ReplyDeleteI drink water like there is no tomorrow right now. I even had gatorade on my (VERY) early morning morning...Nothing like gatorade @ 4:30 in the morning.
ReplyDeleteHot hot hot!!! I actually use Pedialyte to hydrate because it has more electrolytes than Gatorade and it doesn't upset my stomach like Nuun or the other tablets.
ReplyDeleteStay hydrated! I'm glad I hit up the track this morning. It wasn't as hot as it is now. Plus, I'm a water girl but will pull out the nuun or gatorade when it is hot, regardless of how long or short the run is.
ReplyDeleteWe are getting a heat wave here in Minneapolis, too. And the humidity is horrendous. Last night's hill repeat workout was one of the toughest workouts i have ever done. I can't wait until this humidity moves on and we have more 'normal' temps!
ReplyDeleteI stay hydrated by drinking water like crazy and eating watermelon. :)
I like propel.. grape flavor! I know ill be hydrated if i have that because i could drink SEVERAL at a time!
ReplyDeleteUghh the weather has been brutal. I like that you get to choose your track workout. Which one are you going to pick?? My club takes a break from track workouts in the summer, but I miss them!
ReplyDeleteI have a tempo run tomorrow and it's supposed to be 105. I don't know how that's going to happen. I'm in Raleigh, NC. I can do the workouts in the heat but then I dead for the whole day. errr!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it is hot, hot, HOT! I try to eat a good bit of fresh or frozen fruit to help w/the hydration.
ReplyDeleteStay cool!
Yep, I've skipped my runs the last two days and I am missing it - damn heat!
ReplyDeleteBut then I was complaining about our shitty winter and dreamed of summer, now I complain again. :D
I pre-hydrate really well with water, but I struggle with hydrating on my runs. I always either under or over hydrate...so I'm either parched and lethargic...or I have water sloshing around in my stomach. I might have to try the Pedialyte trick Elizabeth suggested...
