 So I am flying to California on Thursday this week for some meetings and then also the race on Saturday, Lake Sonoma 50. So but I want to be sorry about that. I just re-listened to that clip. I just tried to film for you but it's a little too windy out. So I'm gonna finish in here. Basically I'm flying to California Thursday. I want to get all my nutrition set today and I love this brand called Honey Stinger and it's based here in Colorado and I'm not I'm sure that it would be available in California in their grocery stores but I don't want to risk it. So I'm gonna buy the Honey Stinger Waffles right now in King Supers here and then also the gummies and then also maybe some shop blocks from Cliff. I do like their shop blocks just to change it up a little bit. So that is my go-to nutrition during the race. I'm actually gonna take at least two baby foods at the start line and possibly three. So I'm gonna have anyway I'll show you back at the house how I'm gonna get it all set up where the nutrition is gonna be at in my front little kangaroo pouch and then also in my handheld in the zipper. But I am not going with gels. I'll probably have a gel. They're gonna have goo. So GU is another company. All these companies sorry goo is another company that is sponsoring the race and they're gonna have goo along the way. So I'll probably pick up probably one or two toward the end of the race when it's really hurting and I need that quick quick shot of energy and I've heard that goo has a new flavor called birthday cake. Hello! So but overall I'm not a big goo fan and a big gel fan. It just hits the stomach a little funky. I like my baby food. I like my waffles and I like my gummies. I think it's a little more palatable if I can use that terminology. Alright, King Super, we're coming for you. Look at the house. Boys are in the bath. I've got maybe three minutes before I need to get them out. So I want to just talk real quickly through how I'm going to fuel myself at the Lake Sonoma 50. Alright so first of all I'm gonna use a 18 ounce Nathan handheld right here. 18 ounce. It actually holds about 19 almost 20 but it says 18 on the bottle so basic you know right there you stick your hand in tighten it down right there and then the little race nozzle on top so you just squeeze for drinking and then it's got a pocket on the side and in this pocket I am going to put three honey stinger waffles in this pocket right there but I'm gonna open them before the race starts. I'm not gonna have the wrapper just three honey stingers now. If you know honey stinger waffles they tend to fall apart a little bit which is okay it's not the end of the world but I've learned over you know two to three years of ultra running that if you have to wrestle the wrapper while you're racing that's no good. You're wasting mental energy, a little bit of physical energy and basically you break your stride too much trying to open these wrappers so tip of the day is to open this before the race starts stick it in there so you can just unzip boom and grab and eat boom just like that so I'm gonna have three honey stingers and one baby food one baby food for the entire race I'm gonna eat one two I'm gonna eat three baby foods all right so one at the 10 mile 20 mile and 30 mile mark all right so three baby foods so one of the baby foods is gonna go in here and the other baby two baby foods I'm also going to use this spy belt it's a teeny tiny little belt it's not for liquid it's for food remember I talked about how I don't I don't like belts and liquid it's too heavy on your waist but for food it's okay so I might have to stand up for this but basically it unzips here and then it becomes this pouch like that the shop blocks from Cliff bar and then these energy chews from Honey Stinger right there right there and they're gonna go inside but I'm going to open these ahead of time so that it's easy access inside this pouch so I don't have to wrestle during the race opening up these packages does that make sense am I making any sense out there people so there's about ten chews per there's about ten chews per package I think there's eight in the shop blocks and I think there's ten in here I want 50 about one a mile so even though I'll eat them in more you know consistently probably want it by like five every five miles approximately but they're gonna go in here and this is gonna clip around my waist I'll show you in a second and then in addition this belt right there is going to hold these is gonna hold these baby foods on my waist so as I was explaining earlier I'm not a huge fan of gels I think they're fine for like short spurts of energy but for the long 50 mile race I just I don't know I just don't like the gels I can do them if I need to if it's a clutch you know if you're just bonking I can do a gel force it down but I would prefer something that hits the stomach a lot better like a baby food which I'm gonna carry three of in the race a waffle which I'm gonna carry three of in the race or about 50 gummies which I'm gonna chew just throughout the whole thing remember I don't remember a different ultra runners have said this but basically ultra running is is first an eating contest and then it's a running contest so you've got to just keep eating the entire time it's first an eating contest and then a running contest because whoever eats and fuels the best and is in the best shape and has a decent amount of talent it's probably gonna win fair fair oh yeah and in here I'm gonna have probably like tailwind or maybe just anyway probably tailwind maybe even just Gatorade I like both in the in the bottle here okay it's Sunday I don't know what else I'm gonna film all I know is I appreciate you being here
