    I am planning on getting it out of the way tomorrow as well, making Sunday's run like a walk in the park!

     

    Hopefully I don't asphyxiate myself, there is always a period where I'm not breathing while trying to swallow them God awful things.

     

    Have you tried any of the other brands?  I know the Hammer gels I've had are thinner, with less of the snot+rubber cement texture.

      Shit, at this point, it probably would matter what flavor or brand it is. It's akin to swallowing a raw egg, I've learned to just get it over-with rather than try and taste it.

        Just finished my first ultra...12 hours in a minivan with 3 kids.  Smile. Tougher than any one of those silly marathon thingies.

          Um, yeah, I'm glad I have no idea what that is like. My dad used to eat raw oysters, so I expect they're all much the same.

            Took me a shot of Jim Beam's Devil's Cut (90 proof) and am now drinking...... something, Jim Beam's Hardcore Cider mixed with a little bit of cranapple juice, I'm feeling pretty damn good. I think I could go run 20 miles right now lol.

             

            That's my girl.

              You, sir, are a glutton for punishment.  Or a saint.  And I'll bet your wife is a Tough Mudder.

                Yeah, well only "those kind" of web sites give 14 days forecasts, you know, the kind that always give impressive "feels like" temps. The Canadian weather, the good one, don't try to predict that much in advance, and they're the ones where I get my DP figures, so I dunno.

                 

                If it is called Accuweather, it sucks.  Weather.com has a better forecast than the one you posted. I hope that one happens, ha.

                 

                Although anything is better than the 96F heat index and 77 dewpoint we have right now.  At 9:30pm/

                          Well if this one won't what are the odds the next one will?

                            Sigh.  At least I feel faster than 10 years ago, does that help?

                              Yes. It's even better when you look it as well. Smile
