I missed @Nate_Pearson’s pre race carb loading eating. Anyway we can get those images in the forum to use as a guide and as motivation to keep eating?

Perhaps @Nate_Pearson would save the whole IG story as a highlight and you could go back to view it there. Honestly it was an impressive feat to follow.

I did take one screenshot, featuring my favorite cereal:

I guess you don’t subscribe to Nate’s 800g of carbs pre load? 800g of carbs seems a lot…
