I never drink when I run because I never run longer than a half hour previously. Today I ran 5 miles in an hour slow as ****. Didnt even feel like I needed water when I was done. Felt like such a schlub.

You should never base needing to drink on feeling thirsty. Best way to get an idea of how much you need to consume is to weigh yourself before exercising and then after. Unless you ate a shitload during your workout or took a massive shit then the weight loss is water.
8oz of water is just over one pound. So if you are down two pounds you need to consume 16oz to get back to pre-excercise hydration.
