Ice, Ice Baby

Sip on this: People who drank water with finely crushed ice before running 32-degree heat ran 10 minutes longer than those who drank cold water, according to a new report.

If your core temperature becomes too hot, it can slow you down, but when your body uses its heat to melt the ice, your muscles can stay active longer.

Drink 16 ounces of water with crushed ice 30 minutes before your next hot-day sweat session.
