What can I drink to replace sweat?

Water's best for most workouts, but if you're really sweating—working out for longer than 30 minutes, usually—a sports drink may be your best bet. These drinks offer potassium, sodium, and other electrolytes to replenish the minerals lost through sweat.

How much should I hydrate before running?

Just like cramming for a test, binge (water) drinking the morning of a long run won't hydrate you properly. Aim to drink about 2-3 mL perpound of body weight at least 4 hours before your run. If you chug an entire liter of prerun water, the kidneys will flush it out, causing frequent midrun bathroom breaks.
