Correct Answer

Answered by ExamLex AI

Before the half marathon, Jane should aim to drink about 17-20 ounces of water 2-3 hours before the race to ensure she is well-hydrated. During the event, she should drink about 7-10 ounces of water every 10-20 minutes to replace the fluids lost through sweat and prevent dehydration. After the race, it's important for Jane to continue hydrating by drinking at least 8 ounces of water within 30 minutes of finishing the race, and then continue to drink water regularly throughout the day to replenish any lost fluids. It's also important for Jane to listen to her body and drink more if she feels thirsty, as individual hydration needs can vary.

Recommendations for fluid replacement after exercise is:


A) 9 to 13 cups of water within 4 hours.
B) 5 to 7 cups of water for every pound of body weight lost.
C) 3 to 5 cups of water for every pound of body weight lost.
D) 2 to 3 cups of water for every pound of body weight lost.
E) 1 cup of water for every pound of body weight lost.
