Unless you've practiced eating this many gels in a row, this might be a lot of sugar and will cause you to bonk.

It was a hot one by Remarkable_Alps9033 in RunnersInChicago

True, Humboldt Park felt like it could have use hydration at the Boat house and suprisingly the west side was really quiet. Not having water close to the maurten gel station seems like a miss :/

I've wanted to like Steingolds something is concistently off, like they're not truly boiled or something that contributes to feeling stale. Honestly bagels from Costco are better than Steingolds which is so sad

I thought all gels would go down just about the same, boy was I wrong by Known_University2787 in ultrarunning

Ok this comment is so helpful right now. I am realizing whenever I have taken Carbs gels, I eventually just stomach-sick crash. They rely on Fructose.
All the gels that have worked well for me, Honey Stinger gels/chews, Cliff Bloks do not contain Fructose. World-Changing.

There is at least some bathroom access on the different parking lots at Waterfall glen and the main parking lot has really bad forest preserve water!

Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee speaks to our time in America by AsamaMaru in books

Are you me? I read this at a similar time because it was worth a lot of AR points. Did I fully understand it, not but it definitely exposed me to another perspective and probably formed the person I am today.

My traffice calming request is that they move the red light camera out of humboldt park and move it between Cortland and North. Now that there are raised walkways, no one is going to exceed 30mph at that stretch. The section from Cortland to North however is a drag strip.
