Me: 6'2" 200 pounds, ding. My goal is to do about 9 minute miles, so I will probably go 9:15 or 9:30 for a grand total of about 3 hours.
How many calories do you think I should take in? There are water and G-ade every mile, but I think that is it. I will have a peanut butter bagel and some plain yogurt a few hours before, a banana on the way, and will be using clif blocks during the race. Clif says 3 to 6 blocks (1 package) per hour. You think 1 block at every water stop? Should I hit anything else along the way? I have some personal sag support on the 3 loop route, so I can bring anything else and get it at the 10k and 20k points.
Gracias.
