• For years, athletes have been told to gulp lots of water

to avoid dehydration. But a new study in the New

England journal of Medicine shows that some long-
distance runners are overdoing it. Researchers found
that 13 percent of 488 competitors at the 2002 Boston
Marathon drank so much fluid they developed
hiponatremia, a life-threatening condition in which the
bold salt levels plummet. But with warmer weather on
the horizon, weekend warriors still need to worry about
dehydration, which can lead to heat exhaustion and
heat-stroke. According to the American Council on
exercise (acefitness.org), drinking plain H20 is usually
preferable to sports drinks. For moderate exercises of
60 minutes or less, drink about eight ounces of water
20 to 30 minutes prior to working out; four to eight
ounces every 10 to 15 minutes during exercise and
eight ounces or more within 30 minutes of finishing.
