Good Bad & The Monkey
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Wow ya'll are making me hungry! Lifesabeach-- Nice din din! I totally love grease before a long run. I dunno why but it works! And yeah I get you, it depends what I ate the night before but like I had a BLT and a big ole stack of seasoned curly fries (dipped in ranch) before my last speedwork session and had nothing for breakfast. So it depends on how much I ate and how close to bedtime I eat. I just got passed by a woman in the 1500 mile club. Damnit, it was fun while it lasted.

Pop Tarts DO NOT hold up on a run, but you can store them well in your stomach. Eat them about 30-45 minutes before the run and they will support you for about an hour or so. Two pop tarts, 400 kcal!
I was SO going to pick up pop tarts today but I forgot once I stepped inside the store.
I have extras

Kristen I am glad you found a non-GU snack. We should keep this thread alive to invite/inspire creative non-GU running snacks. I'm all for that! I'll do a 13-14 miler this upcoming weekend so I'll purposely try to think of something. I'd love to have mini bagels with peanut butter or cheese... hmmmmmmnnnn

On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
You'll ruin your knees!
