Josh Cox will be at the 2011 Health & Fitness Expo from November 11 - 12 at the Alamodome in San Antonio. Cox, the American record holder in the 50K, four-time U.S. Olympic Trials qualifier and three-time U.S. National Team member, will be at the Ozarka Brand booth sharing his hydration tips and expert training advice. Specifically, he will offer his advice about personal training regiments, healthy hydration habits and injury prevention -- highlighting the belief that when you start with something better, you finish better.
As a seasoned professional, Cox is no stranger to the necessity of consistent hydration as he trains to run any physically demanding race. "Water is nature's way to stay properly hydrated without consuming any calories," says Cox. "Water consumption is essential to all athletes and Ozarka is an important part of my workout routine when I'm in Texas." Cox's strenuous routine includes running up to 140 miles per week.
