[QUOTE="idrivethetruck, post: 1348041, member: 882"] Yeah, I LOL every time they read that in the PCM. Seriously, I work in the south and I'm on a residential route with no break from the heat except for at lunch time. The only way to stay hydrated at 90+ degrees is to start when you wake up. Drink a glass of water before you go to work. Drink a bottle of water on your way to work. Take a gallon of water with you on your route, and supplement it with at least one bottle of Gatorade or Powerade (I take 2). I used to get away with drinking only water, but now that I'm older, I need those electrolytes replaced or I start dragging. And remember, if you're not peein' during the day, you're not drinking enough fluid. Also, like "Gumby" said above, keep those pores clean. I pour ice water into my towel and wipe down my face, arms, and legs a couple times each day. It really helps. [/QUOTE]
