I woke up this morning and instantly knew my day would be short lived. Every square inch of my body ached, and my muscles were constantly cramping up with every movement. My first thought was that I was suffering from dehydration after the hot weekend. So I bought a few bottles of water on my way to school and finished a 1 liter before I even got there. I was hoping that I would start to feel better and that things would improve as the day wore on. But by 10:00am I felt even worse, and called it a day while I still could.
I didn't have a long haul trip today but I know I will have one tomorrow, so I am hoping that my re-hydration regime and some extra rest will get me back on my feet by tomorrow. I am not 100% certain that it is dehydration but the symptoms are very similar. I haven't had a case of dehydration since my days in the Army while serving in Iraq, and there is only 1 cure, lots of fluids and rest. The more you push yourself the worse you get.
As of the time of this post I am feeling a little better but not much. I took a 3 hour nap and have been drinking as much Gatorade and Water as my body will allow. I just hope it is enough to get me going by tomorrow.
