Race Day Meal

Okay, I'm doing this more as a note for myself.  Since I finished so strong in the Fort Custer race, I wanted to document what I ate that morning. 

Racing Supplement:  Hammer Nutrition Race Day Boost (4 day loading phase)

8:30am:  Scramble Eggs (egg beaters) and two pieces of toast

On the drive to the trail (90 minutes) drank water

11am at trail head.  Sipped on Hammer Heed drink

11:30 (1 hour before race):  Ate half of Powerbar Performance Bar.  Also took 4 Hammer Nutrition Anti-Fatigue caps.

Noon (30 minutes): Powerbar Gel with water.

5 minutes from shot gun:  Hammer Nutrition Energy Surge tabs (2). 

I do feel I may have over-hydrated because I was getting stomach cramps during the first lap.  I minimized my drinking during the first lap and the cramps went away.  I only drank a third of my lap bottle (I switch every lap).  The second lap bottle I did finish. 

First bottle was Gatorade Endurance and second bottle was Hammer Heed with added Electrolyte powder.
