Pre-hydration...That's the key.

WE have a lot of summer left. The hot humid days are hear for some and will return for the rest.

We talk a lot about getting de-hydrated.

A key to stave that off is drink a large glass of water BEFORE you start your activity. This gives your body something to start on and you won't de-hydrate so quickly.

I have done this for years and it works very well.

Great advice Bill, I always warn my boys before baseball tournaments this summer that by the time you feel thirsty it's too late

I always have water with me. I start off the day with it...not coffee like most people.
