doctorbob18 - 2009-06-29 11:35 AM anyone else have plans for the 4th of July?
Going to a celebration for my GRANDfather's 91st birthday if you can believe it !! After that, taking the kiddies to the beach to see fireworks - It is REALLY cool to see fireworks shot out over the ocean at night. We are staying as far away from Daytona (car races) as possible - traffic is horrendous around the 4th weekend.
Thunderstorms this afternoon. Supposed to have them every day for the rest of the week. Hope it dries up before the 4th. Am going to volunteer at a local MTB race. Should be fun. LBS sponsors and they throw a great party.
The only race I've ever run that was long enough to consider using nutrition was the aforementioned half-marathon. And even then, I only did it because my brother said 'here, eat one of these every few miles'. I believe they were hammer gels, and I KNOW they were nasty. So picking a 'favorite' would be tough.
If forced, I guess I'd go with raspberry. Not exactly scrumptious, but that one didn't make me want to stop to throw up. Even now, over a year later, the thought of the vanilla or apple-cinnamon flavors make my stomach turn.
MDHillSlug - 2009-06-30 8:26 AM Well, my schedule called for a 3.7 mile run today but I couldn't stand the idea of ending up 1/2 mile short of goal. So, I got r done! w00t!
