Thank you for answering so many questions! <br />Hats off to you for managing your life! school, children, wife, running, you are superhuman!! LOL<br /><br />Hoka question: I have the Bondi B. I have a large foot, women's size 11. So I have a challenge finding my size. I live in AR and had to order these out of Oregon. Are these okay for the trail? My plan, after an injury on a paved 50 miler, was to use Hoka Bondi B for the road and go minimal, with Altra Lone Peak for the trail. I did a trail 50 K after a very long transition period and it went well. I ran a marathon in the Hoka and it went well. I do want to try the Hoka on the trail, but don't want to bite it because the shoes don't have the proper trail tread. What say you? <br /><br />Thank you,<br />Lisashebalynnxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17363184301941132649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699371146826913182.post-13965313458696963322012-03-07T21:53:20.540-08:002012-03-07T21:53:20.540-08:00Dave - I've read where you ran a number of 201...Dave - I've read where you ran a number of 2011 races in the Bondi. Does the Evo have a firmer midsole like the Bondi or is it softer like the mafate? Just wondering if it's the traction difference you like or if there are additional differences between the two models that prompted a change to the Evo.

It would be amazing at preserving glycogen and increasing performance if we were not so caloricaly depleted later in the race. I would avoid the sweetened flavors due to the artificial sucrolose in there. The unflavored sounds good. Would you consider mixing it with a bit of electrolyte drink mix like EFS for flavor/salts, or would that defeat the purpose of rapid emptying? <br />Barley drink, not just for breakfast anymore!<br />JeremyStay Verticalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17227232986210817496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699371146826913182.post-23549453255045772582012-02-28T20:10:13.078-08:002012-02-28T20:10:13.078-08:00Yeah, who is that guy with the bags?

When you make the gel do you just add enough water to get it to that consistency or do you have a specific amount/ratio? Sorry for all the questions, but if I can actually get in 800 cal/hour without stomach distress I would be pretty excited to see how it worked!Nathan Sanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12065432792246483354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699371146826913182.post-47785030329902833292012-02-26T20:54:19.339-08:002012-02-26T20:54:19.339-08:00Nathan, I make the Vitargo pretty thick (just unde...Nathan, I make the Vitargo pretty thick (just under 8 scoops) in one 26 oz bottle (or 5 oz flask when I make it a gel, which is easier to carry) and carry another 26 oz bottle for water. As I dial in my systems I will be using only 5 oz flasks for Vitargo gel and a 26 oz hand bottle for either water or water + vitargo. This worked well at Bandera 100k and at the Golden gate 50k.<br />RE Vitargo flavors; there are four; orange, tropical, grape and unflavored. The unflavored goes down smooth and you can mix it in with the other flavors to customize your strength of the flavor. I use about 2/3 unflavored with 1/3 flavored.Dave Mackeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582815873942037665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699371146826913182.post-87700480883617349852012-02-26T16:17:33.441-08:002012-02-26T16:17:33.441-08:00So how many scoops of Vitargo are you mixing into ...So how many scoops of Vitargo are you mixing into a regular bottle (20oz) to get 1000 cal per hour? It says two scoops are about 280 calories, can you get 8 scoops to dissolve? Or do you mix it less dense and drink 2 bottles per hour, etc? In a typical 100 I take a gel every half hour and by the 7th or 8th our I get sick of the sweetness.

I know I don't have that many..if you see the guy I wrote about talk to him for me sometime. <br />I run in the Stinsons because they have the best traction of the Hoka group and my EVOS were left in my wife's car would have been perfect. Stinsons went well enough on the slick but traction devices like microspikes would have been optimal. (I've used wood screws historically on the Boulder peaks, but really should upgrade).Dave Mackeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582815873942037665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699371146826913182.post-58846529247090132572012-02-26T09:12:43.041-08:002012-02-26T09:12:43.041-08:00#594 this (Sun) morning for me.
