A couple other goodies came in today. Finally picked up Ben Greenfield’s book that I’ve wanted to read. Also, my Cyber Monday order of Generation UCAN arrived. This will be my alternative to gels and gus for training and racing that won’t spike blood sugar and insulin. #lowcarbrunner #lowcarb #keto #nutrition #bengreenfield #beyondtraining #ucan #superstarch

11/22/14 - Saturday Morning Run (LA Marathon Training Begins)

First official day of LA Marathon training. Although, technically, according to my schedule it’s week 2. (I had my races last week)

Had a great run with the run group. 
Goal for the day was 11 miles at sub 9 pace. 
Ended up with 11.1 at 8:36 pace. 
I tried Generation UCANN Superstarch for the first time. Took it about an hour before my run. It was a bit difficult to take down. I can see how many people say it’s chalky, but it’s not horrible. It just took a lot of water. Much more than I usually drink pre run. Ended up having to run to the restroom before the run, but the good thing is I didn’t have to go during. I will have to read more on Superstarch tips and techniques. I also took down 3000 mg of MCT oil. 
Overall, I felt pretty good on the run. I usually never eat anything before running so this was a big experiment. I was able to push 8:30ish pace for most of the 11 miles so I’m pretty happy with the day.
