Why do marathon runners drink sports drinks during a race?
Sports drinks, such as Gatorade or Powerade, contain electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, the components of table salt. When you are running, your body loses electrolytes through sweat. You’ve probably seen the salt stains on your running hat and tasted the salt in the sweat running down your cheeks.
Do I need water on a 10-mile run?
Especially if you’re doing a long run or race (more than 8 to 10 miles), it’s important to make sure you’re well-hydrated during the few days leading up to your long run. You know you’re well-hydrated if you void large volumes of pale urine at least six times a day. Drink plenty of water and non-alcoholic fluids.
