I feel like I'm drinking all day long and still not quite there. And I get calf cramps when I am dehydrated, so I know. In addition to carrying a bottle of water with me all day and carrying electrolytes on the run, I've started taking a glass of nuun right after I finish and another, nuun Rest, right before I go to bed. It adds a little extra hydration when I need it. Even if I do have to get up to pee in the middle of the night!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04808535651561822721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-14078064770342855032019-07-30T20:30:46.287-05:002019-07-30T20:30:46.287-05:00You need to drink up, my friend!!!!You need to drink up, my friend!!!!Wendy at Taking the Long Way Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09934786207724059919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-50867159016268113992019-07-30T20:30:10.151-05:002019-07-30T20:30:10.151-05:00i love iced tea as long as it isn't sweetened....i love iced tea as long as it isn't sweetened.

I will have some of that or gatorade made up from a tub of powder I have if I'm feeling dehydrated after a big run, too. I used to have a massive thing for banana-flavoured milk after any run over 14 miles but in my last mara/ultra campaign really wasn't interested. I go for squash normally - sugary if I need the oomf, sugar-free if I just need the liquid.

So good! And I used to drink it at work but because it has .5% alcohol (which I didn't know) we are not allowed to drink it at work. Booo!!! I like it because I have GERD and kombusha seems to help with the heartburn. Now, I am on the fence on Spindrift-- didn't hate it but didn't love it.
