Works just fine :D
That’s some big gravel ! Nice trailer.
 
It’s so hot here the garden isn’t growing. I planted super beefsteak tomatoes and there suppose to cover a slice of white bread. Thank god im retired now. It’s wicked hot. I been buying gator aid by the cases.
I like Gatorade but I have to drink a water after I drink one. I don’t know if it’s just me or what but they make me more thirsty. I’ve heard the best way to stay hydrated is 3 waters per one Gatorade. Just something I’ve tried and have not got dehydrated from doing it at work.
 
Difficult to drink enough to stay hydrated, sweat bout pours out of every pore, so humid can`t dry off.
It is hard I agree , I have to make myself drink even when I’m not thirsty. I had heat exhaustion once and it’s not real fun my legs didn’t want to carry me and I had to get help to get to a truck to get in the AC.
 
Need to replace electrolytes also, all sport drinks like Gator Aide is not fit for consumption and does little for electrolyte balancing. Not trying to start a riot here, I have been competing in marathon sports since childhood and worked long stints on the deserts and playa`s where temps are always over 100F daily. We make up our own drinks, my favorite is just two oranges, one lemon, juice them, needs to be fresh each day, mix with water, sea salt or my favorite, Himalayan pink salt, and a spoon full of honey. This will make a liter of drink, break up the intake into 4 parts and drink water in between. I did use just this mix for 19 days on the desert where daily temps were always over 100F, put in long days over 12 hrs on average and never needed any medical attention, unlike many that were there with me that refused to drink anything but commercial sports drinks, especially Gator Aide.

Great info thanks.
 
I was on a medication were the side effects were I didn’t sweat. Now I’m off of it but I’m sweating more and more as the meds wear off. The sweat is pouring off of me.

During some summer race days I would loose up to 7 lbs, weakness, balance and disorientation problems were always a constant threat. Water and electrolytes kept me going.
