[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A girl I ran track with died running in the Grand Canyon. She misjudged her capabilities and died of dehydration. She was a med student, Boston marathoner, elite athlete. For years her picture was a warning to hikers to respect their own limits. [/quote] There was that family from SF (mom, dad, baby and dog) who died a year or two ago hiking in Ca. I think it was concluded that they died of dehydration. The first time I visited DC, it was on a high school field trip in late May. The climate here is dramatically different from where I grew up, and I was hallucinating & had severe migraines from the DC heat by the end of the trip. I was not the only one. Was super super dehydrated. [/quote] I had a similar experience the first time visiting New Orleans in the dead of August a few years back. I was there for a track meet for our kids, and I had to go into the restroom and lay on the floor. New Orleans' heat/humidity is the most oppressive I have ever experienced. [/quote]
