Hydrate, run in shade, run in cooler part of day, wear breathable clothing (under armour heat gear)

well, black will be hotter. But I have worn under armour that is black and it didn't get any hotter (I mean why would they make heat gear black if it got hotter - kind of defeats the purpose).

Whats better Gatorade or Water? I would say that water is better for you. Maybe not for hydration purposes but for other reasons. For example Gatorade deteriorates your teeth while water does not.

Soda will rot your teeth, Gatorade is not that big an issue. And Gatorade has the electrolites that you need.
They are both very important.

I heard on the news you should rinse your mouth out with water after drinking Gatorade to get the sugar off your teeth, but I guess a tooth brush works too.

I just thought that should drink something else to get the sugar off of your teeth.

Why get up that early, if you are already up then go for it. However I prefer to run at seven, its just a little later but its still cool.

i just prefer to get up early, run, and get a shower so i can have fun all day without squeezing some training and a shower in the middle of it.
