Hi Scott,

I don't really have an answer to your dilema, other than to say I empathise. My ability to convert from metric to Imperial isn't great, but I think I'm in the same boat as you. From my sweat tests I lose 2 litres per hour, and subsequently I'm supposed to be drinking 500 mililitres (which is about 16 oz) every 15 minutes. I've tried increasing the amount I drink while training, but during my first race this season I still felt like the water I took in was just sloshing around in my gut.

Good luck finding a solution.
