Like I have said before, this is a place not only for me to post about my successes but also my mistakes. This weekend was one of those. I have been keeping up with my running and journaling butttt about half a mile into my run this morning, I thought to myself "when was the last time I drank a good glass of water?" I couldn't remember, but I knew I'd had milk with dinner last night and a little bit of OJ with breakfast. I definitely felt it on my run, and I want to avoid that at all costs. I had so carefully planned what and when I would eat this morning, but I had forgotten to drink a good amount of water before my run. I keep very well hydrated at school, but when I'm home I seem to forget to drink even when I'm not thirsty to keep myself well hydrated. But, lesson learned! And what I'll do to fix it is over the weekend I will set out full water bottles in the fridge so I can keep track of how much I have had to drink and how much I need to drink to stay healthy.
Something interesting I should look up is how much water should one drink a day? And if they are exercising? I feel like different numbers are thrown around all the time, so maybe I will also ask the people I interview what they find best/recommend.
