On Sunday I went for a 9 mile run… the weather didn’t seem too hot but it must have been more humid than I realized… I got back home… helped Matt with a little bit of yard work and then felt sick for the rest of the day… I mean sick - just a knot in my stomach… I felt like my core temperature was about 105…. I thought that I had gotten plenty of water before the run and drank water after… I should have followed my own advice about staying hydrated.. because I didn’t… today I bought a new belt that holds two small water bottles for my future runs in this warm weather…
When I got home from the run - I had all of the classic signs of heat exhaustion and just didn’t realize it until it was too late… hope you are enjoying the outdoors… I have learned my lesson…
