Training is moving right along and I have to say it is going fairly well so far! I have not missed any runs on my schedule and have kept to the mileage of every run.
Last Saturday was a 7 mile long run and I was pleasantly surprised with how well it went. I tried a new energy gel, Honey Stinger Gold. I have to say I liked it! I found the consistency was thinner then the other gels I have tried in the past. I did carry water with me in a hand held water bottle and did not like that! It felt heavy and my elbow hurt from holding it up. I am working on the solution to that problem.....
Next long run coming up is on Saturday with 9 miles. I don't think I will have time to get more Honey Stinger so I am going to try Salted Caramel GU. When it came out last winter, it was quite popular and hard to find...seems to be everywhere now so I am going to give it a try!
Chugging right along! :)
