Is it just me...or do you all agree...how hard it is to do a long run and go by a burger joint or cafe serving bacon and eggs! Damn that's the toughest part of any long run for me. It makes my gels and water taste like vomit.
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
If you are going to use gatorade, I recommend buying the powder and mixing your own. It's much, much cheaper.
..There are some how-tos out there for making your own gel at home, which is about 3 to 5 times cheaper, though you may not be able to replicate the taste/texture of the commercial products...
esq.
Has anybody here tried to make their own? I'd be interested to hear how it went.

The steady plodding of the diligent leads surely to advantage(victory), But everyone who is hasty comes surely to poverty.
Endurox R4 recovery drink and Endurolytes electrolyte capsules. Has anyone heard of these or tried them.
Homemade recovery drinks ... I would be quite interested in trying that out. Anyone out there that even know what goes into them and how to go about it?????? Thanks.
