Notes

69 F, 68 DP 2 Magical Muggy Miles with Tory ezpz, low HR

Tus and Wed ate Spaghetti Lunch and Dinner. Weight coming up nicely.

Ptretzels for snacks=salt

Steve,

You can't replace more than about 24 oz/hr (about 8oz/20 min) when

running, including fluids from sports drinks , no matter what how much

you sweat, anything more than that will just sit in your stomach and

slosh around...can you say bloating.... Carbo loading will help

retain water (that's where the weight gain comes from when you load

up) so give it a try and I would also increase salt consumption 3-5

days before the race (NOW). When it's hot out, I supplement w/

electrolytes and that helps manage water as well (water goes where

sodium flows) and I would suggest that. I use e-caps myself. 3-4

caps before the start, then 3-4 every hr.
