Felt VERY STrong- better than last week.....8 mins off time.

Notes from Kathy re: last weeks run- changes made this week.
Doreen, I like the miss of sugars that you are getting. Concerned about taking all the pills every hour . . . thermolytes yes, but not certain of the others. May be able to get away with the aminos and the VO2max every other hour.

You are doing well getting in approx 40-60 grams of carbs an hour. The 3rd and the 4th hour are critical -- you may want to try and eat a bit more -- during these hours. Possibly switch to the powerbar drink mix during this time? Is that an option? You could carry the powder and add it to your water bottle during the third hour. This would give you an extra 30-40 grams an hour during the last 2 hours of the run. Only 150 calories, but great FUEL.

If you do use the sports drink, then you would NOT want to use the carbo-pro during those hours. You could eat those calories instead
