Hey all,
So the 10k race I have been training for is coming up soon, and seeing as it is now summer, I think I am going to need a way to hydrate without stopping during the race. What better way to do this than a fuel belt (or a handheld water bottle, I guess)! I was wondering if any of you had suggestions for which belt/bottle is best to use while racing. I really am pretty clueless about this whole category of running gear, so any help is appreciated!
Thanks!
Hand bottles are the way to go, don't want to look stupid by wearing a fuel belt. I love your enthusiasm - best of luck!
Hydrate well before the race, and you should be fine and not need hydration during the race.
2/10, you got a couple people to bite
Have your boyfriend drive to designated points on the course and blast you in the mouth with a Super Soaker filled with Gatorade (endurance formula is best!). That way you don't have to carry anything and save some weight so you can set a PR!
Packing Heat was better
What you need for the 10K is the 3 gallon camelback hydration system. You should be able to find it at your tri store.
Make sure you have at least one bottle for each mile you race, that's what has always worked for me
i love push-ups. carry a push up and suck on that the entire time. no big deal.
