    I have such a new found respect for all of you distance runners. I am going to be so happy to just finish this half coming up. I have to find a energy substitute. The gu and chewys don't work. I am getting sick from the caffeine. May have to go back to a cliff bar.

    April 4: 13.5 miiles - walked 2 miles and ran 11.5 miles...new distance record for me and I shaved 10 sec. on my mph.

    TTD: 39.5 miles

    I find them all pretty revolting but I use GU Chomps Watermelon (no caffeine), 4 per hour. Congrats on your new distance and pace! I am so excited for you!!!

    Thanks for the suggestions for energy. I am with you JTH11706. I find them pretty bad. I used power bar chew for my 10 miler in Nov. And forgot how sick I got from the caffeine and here again today. I am going to try non caffeine and see if that does the trick. A friend told me how she puts a tsp. of honey in a sandwich baggy and puts the bag inside her sports bra. I did that in the fall and it seemed to work. You bite the tip off it and suck the honey out of the bag. A kick of energy. Thanks also Dean for your suggestion.

    My son got me out frisbee golfing again today on a local course. That's 3 out of the first 4 days of this month! :laugh: And we're going out together sometime this week to go buy me some of my own discs to start my collection :smiley: Got 1.5 hilly miles in on today's course.

    @clepant: When I did my half, I had nuts and dried fruits trail mix and also thrown gummy bears in there; ate the latter during last part of the half. It worked for me. I'm sure you'll find what works for you, hang in there.

    And congrats! There's nothing like a new DR and getting faster!! We feel like we can take on the World! :smile:

    Just barely enough time this morning for an update before I'm back to my desk. (sigh) Added 3.5 miles for a April total of 4.5 miles. Wow, I truly hope the end of the month is better for me.
