Hydration is extremely important in running

It primarily refers to hydration belts or fuel belts that athletes prefer to run with during longer races or extreme weather conditions. Another factor why all runners should run with a hydration belt is the fact that one can never be sure about the availability of facilities like water fountains on the course or more importantly, the kind of fluids that are served by the organisers.

Hence, with a hydration belt, the runners can ensure that they have the ideal drink for their body, not over-concentrated or over-diluted. Moreover, it helps them save valuable time as they can consume their own fuel as per their own requirements without having to wait at aid stations.
