Here is another skinny: after several doctors appointments for the last part of January, it was discovered that I had a severe bacterial infection, a hip fracture, and a groin strain. Some of it due to under fueling. Lesson learned: fuel is a verb. DO IT.
Soooooooooooooooooooooooo, anyway,
Now i go to physical therapy once a week.
And will be,
For a while.
Goodbye.
For now.
I’ll be back.

It’s 8PM and I’m sitting in bed with a stuffy nose. I was about to cry a few moments ago until I remembered that I’ve been meaning to make a list of all the energy gels/food I’ve been trying out during every one of my long runs.
During my long run workouts, I need to replenish around 1700 calories (more or less) which means I should consume several packets of these lil goopy things in the span of 2-3 hours. Come marathon day, I will probably need to carry 8 of fuel sources and so I’ve been shopping around for months to find something that gives me a good balance of minimal GI issues (vom, the runs, burps) and maximum portability.
No verdict yet on what I will pick for race day, but here they are, in no particular order, my fueling gels/foods:
1. stinger waffles: while I started off hating these, they have a way of winning you over. It’s nice that they lead to very minimal burping, and better yet, the burps don’t make you gag the way the gels do. Their gigantic size and clumsy shape means I need to find a good carrying solution.
2. Huma strawberry gels: these have been my favorite although on my most recent run they gave me the gags. I just need plenty of water to flush down. I don’t know much about this company other than they claim to put chia seeds in their gels which gives you lots of energy. This pretty much checks out! I take them every 40 min. They have a similar texture to and taste almost like, if you’re familiar with Mexican candy, Lucas Pelucas (minus the spicy flavor). This is probably due to their high sodium content. Very, dare I say, fun to eat.
3. Ucan Edge gels: these were the first gels I tried. They’re not technically gel, instead they use some sort of cornstarch mixture which they claim is better than what other products typically use as the base for gels thereby reducing GI issues. Ironically, I got very burrrrpy when I tried them. They were also the first time I tried gels so I had no idea what to prepare for or expect. I may give them another try now that I have mastered the art of eating and running simultaneously.
4. Huma lemonade (caffeinated) gel: taking this was like inducing a panic attack? No good. I should say that my body is really sensitive to caffeine so i don’t typically consume caffeine other than in my morning cup of coffee. Now that I’ve tried a caffeinated gel, I’m going to stay far away. A few weeks ago, I received a HUMA sampler pack in the mail which included one gel pack with 2x caffeine lol. Just looking at it made me panic so I threw her out.
5. Honey stinger energy gel: very thick and sweet, and they don’t taste great. Water is essential to wash it down. The nice thing about these is how small they are. Very portable.
If I try any other gels I will add them to the list. But overall, I like the waffles and the salty strawberry gels. I stand by what I said months ago which is that all of this is such a show. I think a little pack of stroopwaffles, baggies of gushers, packs of honey would do the job. But here we are. 8:50PM. Good night. 🌙

Sundayyyyyy
It’s 9:03 but my main goal is achieved. 13k long run and it felt so good. Ran with my friend and we really pumped each other up and kept the same pace together. It is so helpful.
May or may not have been training for a half on 6/4. He signed up pretty early on and I did the training out of interest and to support him but now I’m like, I can definitely do it so I signed up too 🤭
Heading into Week 6 of training and feel incredible.
Now to eat the rest of this day away, do some uni work and hang with Josh. 💕

So, I just found out that this October there is a 1/2 marathon where you run over the ambassador bridge, and then return through the tunnel back to Michigan. So this is my goal.
9 months to train for my first 1/2 marathon!
TIPS ARE APPRECIATED!
