ARE YOU HYDRATED?
Match your urine to the colour guide below
The number one way to tell whether your body needs rehydrating is assessing the colour of your "number one's"
HYDRATION TIPS
Before you race:
- 1x Cup water (250mls) before bed
- 1x cup when you wake up
- 1x cup on your way out the door
On Race Day:
- Sip an 800ml drink bottle and aim to refill at least once every hour
- For every 3x cups water, drink 1x cup hypotonic electrolyte mix (eg Thorzt)
- Increase electrolyte intake when experiencing heavy sweating
SPEED
- At just 1% - 2% dehydration, racers experience decreased cognitive abilities, reduced concentration and alertness, and slower reaction times.
- 3% dehydration can slow reaction times to the same extent as having 0.08 blood alcohol content.
- At 0.08 BAC you are 5 times more likely to crash
Best Practice
- Drink Regularly 180-240ml fluid/hour
- Avoid excess caffiene
- Avoid high-sugar energy drinks
Quick Stats
- Kart racers can sweat in excess of 1L/hour when driving in the heat
- 1% dehydration is about an 800ml fluid deficit for an 80kg adult male
