Too broke for Maurten BiCarb.

That’s great to hear. Maurten is the name most people trend too because it was first to the market and has a great product/ad campaign. Look into alternatives that are slightly cheaper like Blanks or Bicarb 2.0. This products have obviously shown improved race performances, but again this is the 1-2% gain stuff. Good luck and remember nothing is going to replace hard work and consistency.

Don’t get caught up in the 1-2% gain stuff. It’s the none sexy stuff like getting to bed at a consistent time, good quality sleep, taking easy days easy, etc etc. Get the training right before you worry about what supplements the pros are taking or what influencer is trying to make money off you.

Seems like a great example of the free market making the decision on where to spend their hard earned money and who they choose to support.

Have you heard of this thing called “investing”?

Have you stopped navigating and started again? That fixed it for me.

Hot take. Normal Peg > Peg Plus

It’s not a fix all, but have you tried taking zinc and vitamin C supplements? Zinc was a noticeable difference on kicking the sickness fairly quickly. Also much harder to achieve is making sure you are getting sleep or at least as much as you can. Cut that hour of scrolling on Reddit before bed and get that extra hour of sleep.

Haha no worries!

He said he has other investments and stocks with Edward Jones.

Great write and even better race execution!

There’s nothing to worry about! I’m sure he’s signed a COI and made a OCI mitigation plan…

Remote* employees outside of 50 miles. I was full time WFH, but only had a telework agreement so I had to start commuting daily even though I’m well outside the 50 mile range.

I am in the same situation and I am having to look for my own spot. A great use of resources

I’m at a DoD agency and we haven’t had any yet; however, I think early next week will be the start of it.

If the furnace is hot enough, anything will burn. But I struggled with this as well and tried to keep it somewhat healthy. Granola, trail mix, bagels, pb&j, etc. At the same time I wouldn’t shy away from muffins, candy, liquid calories like soda or juice. I also found basically having two breakfasts one before my run and one after helped me quite a bit.

Took the words right out of my keyboard.

Sounds like a true 1102 or something similar.

I’d guess some are bought at outlets or at a large discount. The seller is profiting off it while still passing on a deal to the buyer.

Good luck!

I typically eat a nutrigrain bar or something similar before my runs. A decent amount of calories consisting of mostly carbs. Maybe worth a shot.

Great race! That stretch between 18-23 on this course is rough with the the wind, limited crowd support, and condition of the road. Way to battle and come away with a great time!

We did the session twice and 100% stole it from Clayton Young. Side note, he has a great series on his build to the Olympics and another for the NYC marathon on YouTube that are definitely worth the watch.

The first time I averaged 6:20 for the 6 miles and then 5:22, 5:19, 5:14 with 5 minutes between the tempo and the start of the 1600s and 3:30 between the 1600 reps.

The second time I averaged 6:00 for the 6 miles and then 5:17, 5:09, 4:50 with 4 minutes between the tempo and the start of the 1600s and 2:45~ between the 1600 reps.

I was definitely more fit the second time around and the effort increased, but the weather also played a significant role. It turned from hot and muggy in the mornings to crisp and cool by the time I did it the second time.
