countdown to memphis #5

Gu!  This is what I'll consume during the marathon...a gel substance that's packed with energy and minerals.  I went to REI recently to stock up, preparing to carry four Gu (Gu's, Gus?) with me during the race.  However, upon reading the race packet, they will be providing Gu at 4 points along the way - 9, 15, 18, 24.  This is perfect!  I won't have to pin my own to my pants!

I do hope that they have the flavors I like.  The fruity ones are mostly good (except for Lemon-Lime, blech!) but there are a few I will watch out for (Peanut Butter and Vanilla Pudding).  The two that are not fruity that I especially like are Mint Chocolate and Chocolate Outrage.  Yum.
