I just found two great running-related links: “Eat and Run” (about carb-loading before a race) and Secrets of Endurance: Eating to Go” (about eating during a race to avoid the dreaded “bonk”). As the Snook and I start to increase our milage, this will become more of an issue. We didn’t do too badly with the City 2 Surf in terms of hydration, but we didn’t bother to eat anything during the run. Next year I think a hit of energy goo on Heartbreak Hill is in order.
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
