We also had cool temps, so I drank less than I would have if it were hotter.Dirty Runninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11941067370886942981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376658065276829001.post-6588944012413837662012-04-29T11:21:23.883-07:002012-04-29T11:21:23.883-07:00Thanks Dax!

I ran out once on the way back from the North Rim and I was out of water for about 2 miles, so it wasn't a huge deal. Make sure you know where all the water sources are (there's a water source table on Andrew Skurka's site) and replenish your supply at each one. You may also want to carry a handheld just in case the 2 liter pack isn't enough.Dirty Runninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11941067370886942981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376658065276829001.post-10249176801231028962012-04-07T09:56:00.628-07:002012-04-07T09:56:00.628-07:00A group of friends and I will be attempting R2R2R ...A group of friends and I will be attempting R2R2R in about a month. I personally have a 2 liter pack, and was wondering if you had any suggestions as to how to modify my gear list to improve my chances of avoiding dehydration. Thanks!Clarknoreply@blogger.com
