Electrolyte Supplements

I'm going to give Where's Waldo 100k a go in late August.  I'm expecting it to be pretty warm in central Oregon.  I've not used any electrolyte supplements previously but I think I should consider them this time out.  Can anyone suggest what has worked for them in the heat?

Does anyone need to do a repeat of Sunday's Kneeknacker Training Run up Black Mountain tomorrow/Canada Day?

Hello everyone,

Anyone interested in a nice repeat of last Sunday's Kneeknacker Run from Nelson Park up Black Mountain and down to Cleveland Dam or Lynn Valley  tomorrow/Canada Day?  Regretfully, I managed to miss last Sunday's run and would like to climb Black Mountain before KK and/or add a different long run to simulate starting early in the am, if possible.

Pls do let me know if you are interested - laddie.hannam@shaw.ca or 604.603.7672 mobile

Thanks!

I am planning to meet up with the House to Grouse runners on Canada Day - but given my pace, I am not kidding myself to be able to keep up.  I also don't want to include the Grind...which got me thinking of a very custom version of William's run.  Well, maybe it's a totally different run (but we still might meet the House to Grouse folks).

Run from William Jans' house in East Vancouver/Mount Pleasant to top of Grouse Mountain. 5th year running.  Hang about Ambleside park afterwards for a bit for Canada day stuffs and to eat yogurt. Bring a bit of cash for tram, food and possible bus home (unless we catch lifts).

West Highland Way Race, Scotland, June 20th, 2009

Just to let fellow Fat Assers know that Neil Ambrose, Carolyn King and David Crerar successfully completed the West Highland Way Race this past weekend.  David had a great performance and so did we with Carolyn completing her first "almost 100 miler"!  It was a fantastic experience set amongest stunning scenery - yes, I am biased because I am Scottish!  Please see Carolyn's blog for full gritty details!  It should be noted that the course record holder for West Highland Way, Jez Bragg, is competing this weekend at Western States so that should be a good st

Good Luck, Western States Runners!
