Tasting good is good--I definitely don't drink enough water, especially if I am not hot. I run really dry, for instance last year I did the entire Seacoast Century on two bottles of water, and I didn't stop to pee even once. Definitely bonked in there somewhere though. Maybe drinking more [water] would be a good new year's resolution.<br /><br />Bars at the stops? If I'm stopping to eat in Vietnam, you better believe it will be the sample to local food!Gileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18201728865343446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6199796695358985127.post-26332343825980860902009-12-31T10:28:51.539-05:002009-12-31T10:28:51.539-05:00I recommend nuun for your electrolytes, and gels f...I recommend nuun for your electrolytes, and gels for your carbohydrates. Nuun has no carbs, so you can drink a ton of it without getting that sloshy feeling in your stomach. Plus it tastes good and makes you want to drink more often, which is usually a good thing. Supplement it with the gels of your choice, and integrate some bars during your stops.cphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12551053732786141141noreply@blogger.com
