I run 70 miles per week, usually around noon each day in New England. I eat a very low sodium diet. All the sodium I get is naturally occurring in plants, and I do not seek out high-sodium vegetables like celery. I probably get around 500 mg.
I sweat like crazy. My sweat is not overly salty.
It's probably easier for me due to the volume of low-calorie density foods like starches, fruits, and vegetables. If I were eating a lot of high-fat foods like meats or oil I would likely not get enough salt.
Once you are conditioned to a low-salt, no-added-sugar, no-oil diet, your tastebuds become highly sensitized to the existing tastes of the food. Salt deadens the tastebuds.
