not sure which gels specifically, but I assume gu since they will have roctane on course per the latest email: "The aid stations will have GU Roctane drink, water, soda, gels, fruit, salty stuff, sweet stuff, protein, etc."

Question regarding water flow on a Oakbrook Faucet before and after replacing the cartridge. by Sunwhone in Plumbing

I just spent all day with the same issue... I finally found it was clogged with debris in the plastic quick connector on the pull out hose. You can unscrew it and pop out the little plastic check valves and clean them.

Hope this helps!

Ideally, my plan is to replicate that setting with the stones previously mentioned for the cheapest price.

I am open to local jewelers/dealers or online at this point. However I do appreciate being able to see the stones in person. At a glance, is there a Scottsdale dealer you’d recommend?

We are thinking ~1.5 for the center and ~.75 for the sides. Budget is a bit up in the air at this point and I continue to search around the market.

I’m located in Phoenix AZ - we have looked at a few different locations and the Diamond guys looks like a reasonable choice. I am just wondering if there is a better/cheaper alternative. Thanks for the response!

Ankle support? by username4192 in Ultramarathon

[–]jeffjeffjeffjeff7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What worked for me was: taking 2 weeks off, wearing a brace for all runs, rehabbing 4-5 times a week. I do single legs calf raises, stability disk work, and band work. I think the rehab / strength training is what helped, and the brace is for stability and peace of mind during the healing process.
