I've been running with Team in Training, a group that trains for athletic events while raising money for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. It has been an amazing experience so far and I've been overloaded with information about nutrition for marathon runners. I think I can handle eating the bigger breakfasts, carb heavy meals, and the timing of meals, but now that the runs are getting longer, we have to power up during runs and I'm afraid of all those bloks, jelly beans, and gu. I'm going to have to try them within the next 2 weeks but I'm taste and consistency sensitive (cause I'm a foodie!) and I'm deathly afraid of putting this stuff in my mouth. I've never been a fan of power bars and the way these power foods have been described to me don't sound so good.

If any of my readers would like to donate on my fundraising page, I'd feel really loved! Thanks!
