Last month I went on a hike with 2 friends up White Mountain in California. It was a hot, dry hike, 24 km up to an elevation of 4342 m. I kept pushing my friends to drink water. I drank 6 liters and only peed twice.
One of my friends, though, drank too much water for his body to absorb.
Then at rugby practice the next week, someone asked him him if he wanted some water and he said no, and I explained he had a bad experience with water recently <grin>.
