The Woodlands Marathon

Coach and Mary both did The Woodlands half marathon a couple of weeks ago. The start of the race was about 70 degrees with 100% humidity. Not your ideal conditions. Both Aloha Multisport athlete toughed it out and had a good race! Coach had a PR and Mary had a very strong race!!

On another note about 2-3 months ago I switched up my long run and race day nutrition. Instead of using gels, salt tablets (for warmer days), and water I now only use Tailwind Endurance Fuel. It's organic and I can mix multiple scoops in a bottle without it being too sweet or the flavor being too strong. It makes things so much easier just carrying that on my fuel belt. I usually carry a few fuel belt bottles of Tailwind and at least one bottle of water for my long runs.

Happy training!
