Lunchbox - your sig line seems to take on new meaning in the context of this discussion.
Now, on to recovery nutrition. Tonight, 1/2 of a lime (eaten immediately upon return), followed by 15min beer @ 5 min. rest.

And off-topic, just wanted to say welcome to the radiology department. I'd like to make an offer: if you end up anywhere where I know any of the techs, I'll put in a good word for you. In return, if you and I should ever end up in the same race, perhaps you could try to look like you're working really hard when you go past me.
Deal!
:-)

Back in college I'd walk to the Hardee's across the street from the pool, and down a Monster Burger, Fat Person Large Dr. Pepper, some curly fries, and occasionally a spicy chicken sandwich.
Then walk back over to the pool for swim practice - pure energy.

Nothing settles the stomach like a nice warm teaspoon of mayonnaise.

MMMM..mayonnaise. It was a 100+ day with high humidity and the sun just blazing. We were doing a century with solid climbs Everyone was suffering bad. We stop at a deli on the return to get more fluids. Just something to nibble on for those who could stomach food and there is a guy sitting in the sun eating a tub of egg salad. I almost puked just watching him eat it.

Spicy salmon skin sushi at an all-you-can-eat sushi buffet. Lesson: you get what you pay for.

I think most Japanese food started out as a dare. Like so:
"Dare you to eat raw fish."
"I'll eat the raw fish if you eat a live octopus."
"Double dog dare you to eat that poisonous blowfish . . ."

On a related theme, "What not to have at the last rest stop at the Hotter-n-Hell Hundred bike ride" (which is happening again this weekend):
They have a keg (or two, or twelve) at the last rest stop on the century route. Ahhh... beer sounds and smells good
then
. BUT, about a quarter mile past that stop you smell a lot of that beer again, this time left behind on the asphalt. YUCK. Does not smell as good when it's bubbling on the hot asphalt.
