Pete and I are currently working out what to eat during the time. Carb levels and sugar levels, weight.. it’s all quite confusing and any bad decisions will have to be lived with until at least Carmacks when we meet our support crew. Pete has the metabolism of a humming bird so is looking at 700-1000 calories an hour, I’m probably at the lower end of that scale. No real conclusions yet but after our 10 hour practice run on Monday we should be able to draft out a eating plan. Here are two good links we found for anyone who’s interested in endurance and food.
