As an endurance athlete myself, I am well aware of how oxygen is transported through the body. Additionally, I have actually heard of wikipedia (shocker). I was surprised you of all posters would misunderstand my words. My point is the DROPS, electrolytes, vitamins, etc. are but passengers in the vehicle, but that vehicle must be of a certain size. I like Emergen-C packets. Very healthy, blase blase blah great, but... without a certain amount of water, I will die regardless. Additionally, no, I do not believe a single drop of liquid will replace what a scoop of Gatorade will do. Love to be proven wrong on that one because, brother, let me tell you, I mix it up every day and would LOVE to do something easier.

Before I inundate you with facts, lets discuss the obvious: Tiger drinks pink stuff in water on course. By his own admission it is "electrolytes from Fuse". It isn't "a DROP from FUSE" because that is not physically possible. Instead of drinking a gallon of water a day, don't you think I would prefer taking a single drop? NEVER going to happen.

Pescatom, while I am an everyday athlete, I am in no way elite...I meant no disrespect. My point was that no one will see a Camelbak on a Kenyan in the Boston Marathon. Frankly, I am constantly thirsty, so if I was a hiker or something similar, I would probably avail myself.
