<p>Hi Kicksters!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I must say I have been busy reading everyone's race reports. They are so exciting and inspirational!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There does seem to be a common thread, especially in the HIM and IM reports...and that is hydration and fueling. I can see this as being an area of concern for me, especially as I increase my distances. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am good to go with hydrating/fueling while running. However, it's the bike that gets me every time. How do you develop a hydration/fuel plan for the bike? Is there a chart I can follow or is it trial and error?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks as always!</p>
