Race Nutrition Recap (What not to do)
Well I finally went back and added it up to see what TOO MUCH really looked like, I must have gotten to caught up in other things and had a feeding frenzy....must have been all that Shark Week talk. So I thought I would throw this on here for anyone putting their plan together can see how just a couple of extra things can have a huge impact on your plans. I knew that at Lake Placid I took in too much on the bike. At the time it felt like a little more than what I had done in RR#2 and felt fine on the bike.
Starting with 2 bottles on the Bike, and finishing one prior to 1st Aid Station, taking one at each of the 12 aid stations and drinking all of it except about 1/2 of the last bottle...that is 13-1/2 total. I had put a couple extra food items in my race day set up, and special needs bike bag just incase I dropped something.....ok I guess I only dropped it all into my mouth...oops. I expected warmer temps on the bike based on the last 6 weeks of training in June and July, race day nice temps. and overcast. But overall this was a big mistake, and once out on the run I felt like I was way to full and it really slowed me down.
SO PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS 
. Good luck.

About 163 pounds.
I felt like I weighted more at the end of the race.
