Well, this question didn't date well...

2024 Goals: Road/Track 10km Sub 38:00 - 5km Sub 18:30
har har har, looks like dates have a pretty good nutrition profile when compared to gu, I intend to try this when I get my long runs long in a few weeks. If you salt them, that would probably take care of all electrolyte needs
very impressed when reading the article, it's great, you can play papa's freezeria for entertainment with many of the best and most attractive games.
