We\u2019ve all heard about how important it is to drink enough water, whether or not we\u2019re physically active. Yet too few of us heed the warnings, raising some serious health risks. Here are some suggestions for how to stay properly hydrated.<\/p>\n

As an avid runner, certified running coach, and veteran of a variety of marathons, Nicole Cassel knows the importance of proper hydration.<\/p>\n

She understands it so well, in fact, that she actually makes hydration plans before logging longer runs \u2013 like the 40-mile solo run she completed to celebrate her 40th birthday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI went out the night before and stashed my water bottles and some high water-content food along the route to ensure I had of plenty of hydration to sustain my run,\u201d says Cassel, senior health education consultant at Capital Blue Cross. \u201cI knew it was important to replenish with the proper nutrients, including water, every 45 to 60 minutes to be able to endure the total mileage, keep my body from experiencing muscle cramps, and maintain my energy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cassel couldn\u2019t have finished those 40 miles minus those planned fueling pick-ups. But you needn\u2019t be a marathoner to require proper hydration.<\/p>\n

Exercisers and non-exercisers alike must replenish vital fluids, particularly as we enter summer\u2019s most sweltering stretch. Failure to do so, says Johns Hopkins Medicine,<\/a>\u00a0may put our bodies at risk of being unable to cool themselves, raising our internal temperature and potentially leading to heat stroke.<\/p>\n
