    Thanks ladies.

    I ordered some carbo pro, it should be here by thursday, so I will start to fiddle with that and see how I do. I am glad you both said you go a bit hungry rather than overload. It seems to hit me at about 4 hours on the bike. I get really hungry. It does not go without notice that 4 hours is the time of our long rides for HIM training. So I trained the ole' bod up just right for that! Time to retrain.

    I tried the coke for the first time at Mooseman this year. Heavenly. I am now a believer.

    me too - I told my coach ahead of time when he suggested it, that I don't drink soda - and his response was "you will"

    I tried it at about mile 20 of IMLP and it was awesome. Still don't like soda but it was great during the race.

    The one thing I foun on the IM, is although I stuck to my plan for the bike (~300 calories)/hour I was starving when I got on the run an actually ended up taking in more than originally planned (plan was about 200/hr), the first couple of hours I probably did 400/hour then down to 200 for the last 3. (gels, perform and bananas).
