Topic: hydration pee chart

Here is a way to determine if one is hydrated enough...a pee chart...many fire departments use this chart.  CalFire puts these in their restrooms over their urinals.
In short...one is 'shooting' for clear pee or close to it.

Re: hydration pee chart

We had a similar chart in the Marines, the clearer the better.  The drill instructors used to make us piss in front of them and if our piss wasn't clear, we had to chug a few canteens of water to remedy that.  Also, if you want to hydrate for a special event, just remember that it is to take place a day (roughly 24 hours) before said event, not right before you get in your car to race.

Or you can drink a gallon just before your stint and delete the fire extinguisher...

Re: hydration pee chart

Whatever you drink during this race is not going to come out pee! Do they have a sweat stain chart for driving suits. I guess it would have to be by salt stain markings and the level of tacky sac you will experience  depending on your driving time per driver.
