Holy cow!  I realized something today.  Mississauga starts at 10:am, that means, I'll miss lunch because I'll still be running over noon.  What the heck am I gonna do?  Have a big breakfast?
I know I'll be hungry because on Sunday, I finished my run at noon and my stomach was growling like crazy.
What did everyone else who ran the full do?
Now I'm stressed just thinking of where I'm gonna pack a sandwich!  lol  Does fuel belt have a special pouch for that?   tongue

Well Shannon, I have been known to run with a bagel in a pouch in my fuel belt!  I actually ran one of my half marathons in Ottawa carting one of them with me.  And I believe I never had a bite!  I know - I am strange!!

But which Mississauga Marathon are you running in?  Because the one on May 11 starts at 7:30 a.m.  So you should be finished around lunch time! 

I have found that I was never that hungry after either of my marathons.  Must have been all the gels that I ingested or something.

And I just wanted to say thank you for fortifying our proud image of being an eating group that likes to run!!   laugh

I am glad that the panic is over!  The good thing is, think of all the things you will be allowed to eat for the next few days after running that distance!!!
