• Heat stroke ain't no joke!

Many will argue but you should be augmenting your water intake with some sort of electrolyte replenishment. Gatorade seems to get all the press but there are other brands that do the same thing. My carpenter/health nut/bicycle enthusiast buddy turned me on to something called Drip Drop and I've found it to be a huge help in keeping me going when I'm exerting in the heat and humidity. I prefer it over Gatorade. Liquid I.V. is another brand but I haven't tried that yet.

    Funbun, thanks for posting that video and glad you recognized that things weren't quite right. Super smart to call it a day. Different hat style may help as well and I should take my own advice and move to a different style hat with neck protection. Shade would be great to have, as mentioned above."

      Be careful out there. It’s been unbearable lately.

      Tough week in front of us. I'm a Gatorade junky myself and always pack plenty.
