Carb loading

Carb loading started at 10am this morning and will continue until about 3 hours before I set off on the marathon. This regime is different to other carb loading preparation that I have done for previous marathons. The measured carbs that I have had on the hour every hour today are from a different food world from the one I normally exist in..........so today's intake has consisted of rice cakes, k time bars, staminade, pasta and bananas. Anyway I have been told that this regime will give me energy to burn........ I am part of a team for this event- our team name is How Good Is This #1....if you want to follow us ( Zoe, Stu and I) you will see the action between the start at Frankston and the finish line at St Kilda or online @ http://ironmanmelbourne.com/ See you out there :) ( PS to my favourite triathlete, go get 'em tiger)
