Hydrate to feel great ☀️
As we’re going through another hot spell this week, and with a lot more expected before the end of the summer, we thought we’d reiterate the importance of keeping hydrated while exercising in the heat, and why it can help keep you going so you don’t have to avoid running when you’ve got goals to achieve!
1). Sweat isn’t just water
It also contains electrolytes such as sodium, potassium and many more, which need replacing as well as water! The longer the run, the more important it is to hydrate!
2). Post-run hydration is important too!
After a hot run, your body has to keep working to bring itself down to a normal temperature, so keep hydrating to ensure you get back to normal as soon as possible!
3). Feeling thirsty mid run?
It’s essential to already be hydrated before you head out on your run, or else you’re playing catch up! Regular hydrate throughout the day if you’re heading for a post work run, or go to bed well hydrated if you’re an early riser!
We understand that everyone is different, so pop into store so we can try and find the perfect hydration plan for you and your running goals! There’s many different ways you can get your essential electrolytes, whether it be in a gel format, chewing or tablets dissolving in water!
