For Ironman races, on the bike I take 1/4 of a liquid shot every 20min, occasionally replacing this with 1/3 of a bar. On the run, I take 1/4 of a LS every 25min, occasionally replacing this with some banana at the aid stations.
For hydration, I us…

Glenn,
I drink water and whatever is provided on the race course. I believe there are two things to be really concerned about during a longer race.....calories and salt. I try to take about 200-300 calories per hour between the LS and sports drink.…
Art,
Thanks for your help. I used LS for the first time this weekend on a 3.5 hour ride. It was great. What do you do for hydration along with the LS on the bike? Also on the run, do you carry hydration with a fuel belt or hit the aid stations along…
Glenn,
I use the gel flasks which equal about 5 servings of the other popular gels. You can purchase a flask holder that connects to the top tube of your bicycle. For the IM distance, you can put extra flasks in your bike and run special needs bags…
I tried LS for the first time in our 6hr Sprint Adventure Race in March along with the EFS-Bars and had great success. Then on April 18th our team raced in a 10hr Elite Adventure Race and the temps jumped over night to 77 degrees with sunny sky's. N…

EFS Liquid Shot
For many years I have experimented with a variety of gels trying to dial in my race nutrition for 70.3 and Ironman races. I tend to have a more difficulty eating solid food the hotter it is during a race. I started using EFS Liquid Shot in 2008. I was worried that just using a gel would not be enough to keep me going strong. As a result, I still carried one or two bars in case I started to bonk. What I found is that I never used the bars on the bike and just threw them away while in T2. I raced… Continue
