Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat.

The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
