Marathon Weekend 2023

[DopeyRunner486]

I seem to remember Powerade at 10Ks a couple years ago but Wine & Dine 10K in November was definitely just water.

Yes it is It tastes like fish tank water.

I’d drink dasani fish tank water over the tap water any day

As for Powerade flavors, didn’t they switch to yellow for at least one race weekend after MW 2022? I was fine with blue, less fine with not knowing what to expect with how strong the concentrate was in each cup.

Oh yes Florida tap is bad. I am spoiled with my good lake michigan tap water.

Its crap shoot with color.

Has anyone ever flown with the TriggerPoint Grid Vibe Plus?

I feel like I flew with it in my carryon last year, but now I'm questioning myself...

To me, water is water for the most part. I know some people have really strong opinions on various places tap water and different bottled waters but for me, it’s wet. And during a race, I really don’t notice the flavor of the water. It all tastes good!

I'm usually not too fussy about water but Disney water is awful.

I pack a brita filter and refill my water bottle in the room. Not even a fan of the plain cups of water at Disney quick service restaurants, it doesn't taste filtered to me.

The 10K last January only had water, and I'm thinking of carrying my electrolyte drink with me instead of water next month. I have salt/electrolyte chews in the corral and I'll bring a small bottle of water to wash those down. I started stressing last year after the second water stop didn't have Powerade and I pulled over and dug out my sports beans, which slowed me down. I'll have M&Ms with me this year because I can't chew sports beans that quickly.

Soo agree I will take Dasani over Florida's water, it taste soo bad. Why does it taste that bad? I tasted water all across the country and disney/fl water is the worst.

How is it that I had a race dream.....and I am not even running this weekend?

I hope to see you all at the Hurricane Hanna's meetup! Please come and enjoy spending a few minutes meeting your fellow diser's even if you have never come before. It is not a closed cliquey group.

I'm probably the only one who was confused on the date, but it's Friday at 2:00. Thanks to @The Expert for setting me straight.

When running out in the Houston heat, we will take any water we can get. LOL!

Yes there is an ATC advisory out for all flights into Florida averaging a 3 hour delay.

Is there somewhere you can see updates?

You can obviously track specific flight updates on Flight Aware but I saw the general advisory on twitter from local Florida stations.

Wrapped up my last meeting and work items, got home to the family packing and cleaning. So time to pack and get the house ready for our pet sitters! One last run in the morning and then we are Detroit bound and (hopefully) a smooth flight to MCO! This is starting to feel real!
