Strava is a fitness app you can log your runs on. We have an RM group. The link is around here somewhere

But you'll make fun of me.

Strava is outside of RM. There would be zero shtick. Ask guestT and r2d.

Now that I've had a couple of days to reflect on the race, I think my deficiency was electrolytes moreso than water. A cup or two of Gatorade around mile 18 probably would have fixed me up and eliminated (or at least mitigated) those 3 miles of bullshit near the end. Seems obvious now in hindsight. Still, I hit my B goal despite all that, so I can't be too upset about it. My overall fitness felt like it was right where it needed to be. Potentially easy fix for next time.

Legs are feeling surprisingly decent today. Quads are shot, but knees, calves, and feet feel great. Couple of toenails in rough shape. Hoping to get out for a short jog in the next couple of days.


Glad you're healing nicely.

If I would have known it was heating up in your neck of the woods, I would have suggested salt tabs.

These are what I buy. They make running in the AZ heat bearable.

A few weeks ago I did a little research into salt tabs but never followed through with it. Doh. Salt Stick was what I was looking at. A guy here who runs ultras recommended Endurolytes. These S Caps look like they pack a lot more sodium.

I prefer S! Caps.

I was sponsored by Hammer (you can guess why) for awhile and hated Endurolytes to the point of saying "No, thank you!" to free stuff.

No it's free. You can pay for premium but it's not required.

No. There are some random people in the group. But they are good for random kudos, especially Rob.

Cool. This might be good for me. Most of my Instagram and Facebook are filled with yoga friends and it keeps me in that game. Perhaps this app and you guys will help keep me invested.

It's a trap. Next thing you know you'll be signed up for 100 miles worth of races and spending almost as much on shoes as you used to on beer.
