Ever since I started running, all I know is that I need to drink a sh*t ton of electrolytes. But I would like to understand why on a physiological level.

You’re one big (and complex) circuit. Electrolytes conduct electricity when mixed with water and that’s essential for our cells, organs and systems to work well. We lose electrolytes through sweat, urine (as well as vomiting and diarrhoea). It’s why you’ve been advised to increase your intake of electrolytes to avoid feeling prematurely fatigued or ill.
