Nutrition on the Run

I guess the popular Pre/ on the run nutrition these days is probably some type of gel or gatorade-type drink...plenty of carbs, maybe even a good portion of HFCS. Some may add in a bit a caffeine too, great if you want a quick sugar rush and then the crash which leaves you totally depleted in the end.

Still searching for nutritional nirvana, I don't know if the issue is protein, fat, less processed foods, the type of carbs ect.

But in my ongoing experiments, I did try organic baby food last night. Aramanth, veggies, fruits...couldn't ask for more nutritional value all in a portable very easy to use package.

Although I don't think it's the be all and end all to my search it does give me some ideas about self packaging some pre-race whole foods like potatoes ect in a similar manner. It does however give me a fall back plan when needing real good quality non-junk food in a pinch.
