How much fluid will be lost (sweat)? Anyone want to hazard a guess?
I am thinking 3 pints? = 3 pound...
I plan to weigh myself prior to and after the race. Results should be interesting.
A Pint's a pound the world around..
I lost 15 lbs in collage at a weekend long wate-rpolo tournament. My coach (a real dope) gave us salt pills and told us not to drink too much water. This was pre water-bottle. I think he thought we were loafing if we got out of the pool to take a drink at the water fountain.. I had kidney stones after my Sr. year thanks to him. You do not want any part of that.. trust me.. Drink lots of water!!!
