Subject: RE: Over The Mountain TriathlonHey Forrest,
The ride does look a bit steep, I wish I could ride it before.
My nutrition plan is this. Night before carbo load with pasta dinner, low on the sauce, being careful not to get too bloated from eating too much. No wine
Morning of, bagel with peanut butter, or instant oatmeal, washed down with coffee (little sugar ). More Accelerade in bottle sipped on for the ride there (usually finish ). Hour before eat half a power bar, GU with caffeine 30 minutes before swim.
On Bike, I have a GU with sodium taped to the bar of my bike so I can rip it off with one hand. I have a half mixture of Gatorade Performance and Accelerade in ONE bottle in my bottle cage on the bike. I've found I really don't need more than one bottle for only 24 miles. Big swig of Gatorade Performance from a bottle at T2 I have there.
On my race belt for the run, I have Jelly Belly sport beans in the pouch. I try to swallow those down with the water they give. That's it! |
