      Nice distance!!! For the tummy, are you eating really close to when you start your run? I have to eat my Go Lean Crisp and drink my coffee and then wait at least 1/2 an hour, if not an hour. Or perhaps drinking too much on the run? Or using a sports drink that may not be the best one for you? Or washing down energy gels with a sports drink and taking in too many carbs at once?

      I think it more has to do with what I ate last night (Indian Food) combined with being tired. I am good with my G2 however Id like to play with the idea of trying something else. I have not GU'd in a very long time so I know its not that. Ill figure it out soon :-)
