Subtract end food and fluid weight from start food and fluid weight. Keep that number. Subtract end body weight from start body weight and add that to the kept number. Divide that total by the number of minutes the run was, then times the result by 60. This is approximate sweat rate in litres per hour.Tales From The Midpackwww.facebook.com/FromTheMidPack
