Poll question result, Green Apple Wins.
So in addition to the Vanilla Power Bar Gel packs, I wanted to add a few flavor or two to see how they taste and see how they feel in the ol' belly. After reviewing flavors and what they might taste like after I've run 4, 8, 10 miles and am exausted, Green Apple won out.
Quick story about my buddy Green Apple, I gave him a shot after 9 or 10 miles. It tasted delicious... I take that back, it tasted pretty good for a plastic bag of flavored goo. What I didn't realize until I took it, it has some caffeine in it. Caffeine is nice for a good little energy boost. However, as one of my running mates J told me, that energy come beause it "get's things moving in your body".
Well come mile 11, things were definately moving in the stomach region and I was getting nervous. I was able to hold off the inevitable while running, but on the "L" ride home, right between the Addison and Sheffield stop, I was convinced there was going to be a mess. Good news, no mess.
Lesson learned, no caffeine in my gel packs or goo any more.
