My nutrition plan isn't all that different from Mr. SR500, although I drink Cytomax instead of the products he mentioned. I, too, can't really handle Gatorade, but Cytomax works for me. I also bring along bite-sized chunks of Paydays and try to eat something every 15 minutes or so. I try to drink water or Cytomax every five minutes, alternating with about a 2:1 ratio. At lunch, I try to get a bit (not too much) protein. I've skipped the lunch that is provided and had my own waiting for me instead via my SAG driver. Remember to keep drinking during lunch. It's an easy time to get dehydrated.

My stomach isn't terribly fussy so I can generally eat about whatever. My biggest hurdle at RAIN has been a persistent hot foot. But for that, the ride was pretty easy. I've done harder, hillier rides that are shorter. Again, however, I'd note that I haven't really had to do it in terribly hot water. I'm sure that has made a difference.
