It was really hot in there tonight. I drank two bottles of water over the course of 45 minutes.
I think it has to do with core temperature regulation and my body just was losing more water through sweat and cellular respiration than I could replace.
Could it have been that delayed gastric emptying thing?

Overheating, or hyperthermia, can be a problem with strenuous exercise or when working out in hot weather. Overheating can cause mild to life-threatening conditions. Heat exhaustion, a moderate form of hyperthermia, is characterized by the following symptoms:
* Lightheadedness, nausea, headache, hyperventilation, fatigue, and loss of concentration.
* A high temperature (above 103 F), possibly accompanied by complaints of chills and clammy skin.

I think the only pattern I haven't used has happy faces & peace signs, but it still works.
I tend to overheat and have to stop and take off my helmet every so often - let my head cool down.
