The Running Room Club Update:
Sudbury Store (Cedar Pointe Plaza)
Good Afternoon,
The weather has been hot and humid and we just want to
remind our walkers and runners to be sure to carry water
or coins when they are out there to prevent dehydration.
Wetter is Better! Water, like carbohydrate, is a critical
nutrient for long distance walkers/runners to focus on.
Unfortunately, water intake is often overlooked, a practice
which can have disastrous results.
Water is essential for:
regulating body temperature
transporting glucose and other nutrients to cells
removing waste products
All of these processes suffer when water intake is inadequate
and dehydration can result. Dehydration or lack of body
water is a very real concern for that all walkers/runners
need to be aware of. Left unchecked, dehydration curbs endurance
and overall physical performance. In extreme cases, dehydration
can be deadly.
