Running 1,300 miles makes you very hungry.

of “organic and natural” talk. I took a look at a few products and here’s what they show for ingredients: Clif Shot Bloks (same concept as gels, gatorade but in a gelatin block style) Lemon Lime flavor: Organic...

Clif Shot is under KSA; Red Bull, I believe, is under KF of London, and if All Sport is still around, that’s a Pepsi product, so might be under kok-k. And Pathmark’s private label sports drink is under o/u. MIght be...

Mediterranean Cafe’s (one blok east of the corner Lake and Del Mar in Pasadena) are quite acceptable if you work or live nearby. Not worth a long drive though. Open until 7:30 PM. BTW, the cornish game hen kabobs at...

Clif Bars – they’re supposed to be “healthy energy bars” but they taste (to me anyway) just like a freakin' cookie. Pretty good. About 200-230 calories per bar (depending on flavor). My favorite these days...

hopes for the presence of bacon (or the sight of the demise of another guano depositing plunderer of expensive Clif bar corners) but you’re not quite sure this is cause for jumping up and down. I’m no expert when it...

I second the vote for Lara Bars... I used to eat Clif, but sometimes I find them too sweet and they have a list of a million ingredients. They now have a ‘natural’ version (I forgot exactly what they’re called),...

formulated to digest easily during exercise, and chocolate ClifShot actually tastes pretty good. If you want “real food” or have to keep a tight budget, try a banana, a breakfast bar, or even just a glass of juice.

a shot of some gels or half a Twinkie and some diluted Mountain Dew mixed with water. I just don’t like eating while pedaling ...

activity is your daily caloric intake goes up as well, which allows for some “splurging.” I’ve seen charts where the most active people require 4,000+ calories per day. As for the topic, I find some of those...

I think it’s Gruppo di Amici 1508 W. Jarvis Ave. 773-508-5565 Haven’t been yet, but I just moved up to Andersonville, so it’s not far from me now. I intend to give it a shot soon.

or right after your workout, too. And I mean good ones, not overly processed junk like Powerbars or with too much sugar like Luna bars. Something minimally processed like Clif nectar bars or Larabars. Or just a jar of...

i’d bring bottled water, oranges, chocolate brownie clif bars, hand wipes, and lip balm :D i agree with foodseek, tho..check first to see what you can bring..its seems regulations change daily and are enforced differently...
