Free field tool

Find your sweat-rate starting point.

Use representative training runs to estimate fluid loss per hour. Save private field tests and compare conditions over time; none of the results prescribe how much to drink in every race.

Training-session sweat-rate calculator

Weigh before and after a steady, representative run in similar clothing. Record what you drank; include urine only if you measured it.

For a useful field test

Use a run long enough to create a measurable change, weigh with the same dry or minimal clothing before and after, and note conditions. Repeat on more than one day before changing a race strategy.
