In a few minutes I'm heading out the door to run the Big Chill 5K at Rutgers. I don't like eating breakfast before I run, but I do like having something to give me an energy burst before a race. When I was training for the NYC Marathon last year I decided that GU was my sports gel brand of choice.
I was in Road Runner Sports yesterday and saw GU's holiday flavor of the year - Peppermint Stick. I thought that would be an appropriate way to get a quick carbs fix before the race.
And the slogan at the bottom of the gel pack - Superior Energy/Maximum Cheer - amused me :)
Thanks Kerri.
The race was something of a mob scene, but it was fun nonetheless :)
Thanks :)
