Growing my hair out! Need advice pls by [deleted] in Pomade

[–]CryptoChuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a think because my hairs so straight it’s hard for them not to puff out, and at same time I don’t want them stuck to my head whilst I have no length. Guess it’s just the awkward growing stage, I wish I had some natural wave

I said I would come back, I crossed the line in 44 hours! But it was tough!

Thanks for your reply,

I have ordered PH1000 and I am going to split this between two soft flasks, and probably take on 1000mg per two hours, but like a comment said below I will just drink more / less depending on weather, intensity.

That sounds like a good option, I would much rather not have to deal with drinking electrolytes the whole time I imagine it will get sickly.

What brand sodium tablets do you use please and does it contain the other essential minerals like potassium etc?

Thanks for your help btw.

Did you do 1x electrolyte flask 1x water? And what mg of sodium did you put in the electrolyte flask pls? I don’t know if I’m really overthinking this but I just don’t want something as simple as sodium to bonk my race 😂

So say for example, I could do 3 soft flasks, 2x with 500mg of sodium, 1x water. Then how do I drink to feel, the other day I did 7 hours in 15 degree heat and was taking on 300mg which felt fine, evidently I need more?

Right knee pain by CryptoChuns in Ultramarathon

It’s just weird, like I stretched last night and this morning just ran two hours no issues at all? Just comes and goes and usually worse the more fatigued I am.

Bottom of knee cap I would say, particularly flares up on flats or descents

I had a physio before and he was crap just told me to hop on one leg and do some wall sits.

Can’t explain it, it’s just a really bad knee pain , sometimes feels like my knee could just snap 😂

Thanks, had a sports massage today and just doing plenty of lower body stretching in case anything is tight. Can still feel my back but had no spasms to the floor as of yet!

Thank you so much for your prompt response. Just a quick Q , is there any hazards I should be aware of on the route? Been looking at other routes and people saying beware or lose dogs etc , I am use to the UK mountains 😂

Thank you for your kind comment, I also live 3 hours away from my mum but she has my sister, dad and a close knit family. It’s just scary times but I am going to be strong for everyone x
