Only 100 more days until the race- Training tips and more are going to start flowing in. What's your favorite training method for the big day?
Here's a tip on how to stay hydrated:
Take your Body Weight, Divide Your Body Weight By Two, Times that amount by 10% = How Much Water You Should Be Drinking Each Day!
Example: Katie weighs 135 lbs. 135/2 =67.5
67.5 x 10% = 6.75 6 oz glasses of water each day.
For each caffeine drink you have you should drink two times that amount in water because the sugars and caffeine that is in those drinks depletes your body and even though it may taste refreshing, you are really working your way toward dehydration!

Caffeinated drinks should really be a LUXURY, not a lifestyle! Water is so vital to our body and staying healthy. Here are two books you should read that are very eye-opening:
