What's in/on your fuel belt?

I have a four-bottle ( 7-oz, which I fill with Gatorade) belt that I use on my long runs, but even then I'm limited to a 8- or 9-mile loop before I have to refill or exchange the bottles. Not sure what you can do with a two-bottle model.

Recently upgraded to one with four 10-oz bottles, haven't used it yet...

After you've used it a few times, it gets much easier to get the bottles in and out of the belt.  I don't use the little extra loop at the top of each holder - they stay put just fine without them.

As to the original question, I have mine filled 50/50 gatorade and water.  I usually fill them w/gatorade the night before and freeze them and then put the water in before heading out.

I have a Nathan that holds 4 10 oz bottles. I dilute 6 gels to 10 oz with water in one flask, Gatorade Endurance in the other 3 flasks and carry a 24 oz bottle with water. I take a mouthful of gel approx every 2 miles or 15-20 minutes with a mouthful of water, Gatorade in between gels. On shorter runs I'll leave 2 flasks at home and just use the gel flask and 1 Gatorade flask with a smaller water bottle.

I bring fuel on every run over 30 minutes. I know it's overkill but when I'm training for HIM's and IM's I'll be taking nutrition in from the start of the run so I like to practice that.

I have the 4 8-oz bottle fuel belt. Kinda wishing I had gotten the 6-bottle one now, since mary training in hot weather means I suck down a lot more water than normal. (But I have a 20-oz handheld Ultimate Direction bottle that someone got me) So far for long runs, I've been using 2 bottles of water and 2 bottles of water with Nu'un for extra electrolytes (since it's hot and I apparently have really salty sweat), and then using gels for fuels as necessary, depending on the distance. Longest run so far completed was 12 miles (been having hip issues), so we'll see what happens when I get to 20!

That's just me, and I'm still new at all of this, so experimenting a little, still. 

I just got a FuelBelt Helium 4 bottle type.  I put Infinit in 3 of them (24 oz) and water in the 4th.  During my 90 min run yesterday i went through most of the infinit.

Still trying to decide if I'm going this route for IM MOO or NOT.

X2.  INfinit in 2 of them, or GE sometimes, and water in 2 for runs.  I sometimes get my wife to meet me at 6 miles to reload me if I am running 12 or more.  I run slow (9+ min pace) and sweat heavy!

Here's mine:

I use the Amphipod belt with 4 - 8oz bottles. Usually do 2 water and 2 gatorade, 1 gu packet in the pouch.

I have the 4-bottle FuelBelt Helium. For long trail runs (60-90 min), I mix Hammer Gel with water and carry that in 3 bottles. The 4th bottle, with the top cut off, holds my cell phone, secured by duct tape. Haven't been able to find a good pouch for it...

Since I usually run by myself way out in the woods I don't mind the extra weight in exchange for the sense of security. I also carry maze and my ID and insurance cards.

On road runs, I stash water bottles on the way or run loops around my neighborhood and refuel on my front porch.

Need a training partner?
