electrolytes come into play? hit up the gatoraid. not alot, but a 20 oz should do you good, or some other electrolyte supplement. cuz i know they used to give the football team salt tablets before hot days, but they dont do it now, and i dont know why, probably health concerns with high sodium. anyhoo, im a big believer in water, a gatoraid, and a peanut butter sandwich. its what our coach said was the perfect meal leading up to a cross country race, and it certainly didnt hurt! i dont know if breathing would cause that or not, i had asthma (part of the reason i quit running) but the only problem it gave me was light headedness and poor breath, but i suppose going for 5 hours the oxygen deprevision would kick in and the muscles would start to feel like crap.
