Fuel & Hydration

I use Honey Stinger gels because they aren't overly artificial tasting, easy to get down, and they are by far the cheapest on the market. I use a variety of regular, sodium, and caffeinated gels.  They all have 24g of carbs. For electrolytes drinks, I use a variety of sodium amounts depending on my needs and the weather.
