IMC Folks -- FREE talk on Race Day Nutrition/Hydration on Aug. 26

For anyone who is interested, I am giving a free talk on race day nutrition & hydration at the Whole Foods Market on Main St. in Penticton (in the shopping center with Blockbuster, left side of the road as you head towards OK Falls). The talk starts at 5pm and will go to about 6-6:30pm with Q&A. No need to RSVP. Just show up and bring your questions.

PLACE:
Whole Foods Market
103-1770 Main Street
Penticton, BC V2A 5G8
(250) 493-2855

TIME:
Wed. Aug 26th @ 5pm

Will there be bacon samples?

You are Professional. Shouldn’t you be charging for this? :slight_smile:

Whole Foods supported me this summer. This is part of the ROI (I hope) I am giving them. It’s free to people, because Whole Foods perceives a value in hosting these things. I suspect you already knew that though. Do you think I need to put a disclaimer? :wink:

too bad it is early in the week. We won’t get in until later that night.

I think most anything you have to say is definitely worth hearing. I hope to be there.

Thanks, Chris

** I suspect you already knew that though.**

You knew I was pulling your leg!

I’ve made a note of the time and place, thanks.

Would be able to schedule a second session for us late arrivals? Maybe on the 27th? Would love to hear what you have to say and I do have some questions.

Thanks

Judging by my massive nutrition failures lately, I think I will be in attendance :wink:

Will there be bacon samples?

LOL!

Wanna go down there together or will you be there already?

Sorry. With all the other race preparation to do, this was the latest I felt comfortable doing it.

Will there be bacon samples?

LOL!
I do buy my bacon at the market where I’m giving the talk - Hertels is my brand of choice. It’s the only one this market sells (and also the only place in town to get it). My all time favorite is still Trader Joe’s Applewood Smoked Bacon, but that is sadly unavailable in Canada. The Whole Foods (as in the chain) is also very good, and I get that when I am in Vancouver.

Will you be providing an outline of bacon based nutrition for race day? Think about it, a bento box stuffed full of bacon! That would surely give you the juice to get up to Yellow Lake with some power! :wink:

See you on the 26th, looking forward to it.

Think big - why use a bento box stuffed with bacon, when bacon is the perfect material to actually construct your bento box out of?

Bacon-built bento box stuffed with bacon… mmmmmm…

Bump for bacon loving IMCers and others like me that just like the smell :wink:

So who was there, besides me? A very thought provoking presentation by Jordan (I am still eating a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios with milk as part of my pre-race meal though). Plus a very fine restaurant recommendation following (Earl’s - the salmon was quite good). Thanks for taking the time out of your busy week Jordan, and it was nice to say “hello” after the discussion.

I was there. I did learn that my sodium consumption has been woefully inadequate. I am now a reformed endurolyte customer.
