Boston Water Stop

Last edited Fri 4/14 1pm

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
Gatorade Endurance Lemon-Lime has been found! (Go Big-Y)
No clear Gatorade.
mc- reclarify please.

Keep reading down, the list is down there.

PLEASE CHECK YOUR
NUMBER
ARRIVAL TIME
WHAT YOU WANT
Enter a new note (don?t edit your old one) I might miss old notes.

We're gonna be out there!
Look for that HTH flag on the left, at Centre St., just before the 20M marker. We will get it up on a streetlight pole so you can see it. It may be horizontal.
I am catching the new info.
I hope Gatorade Endurance Orange is good enough for Lemon-Lime. L-L seems to be missing.

Yell Hey Pro and yell your name (like divechief)!!
Don't stop. (unless you want a break) we'll get it to you.

-Craig

We'll be at the same place with the same HTH team flag. The flag is about 3 feet wide, and 10 feet up on a pole, but you still have to look. 50 yds short of the 20 mile mark, just after Centre St., on the left, and just prior to last piece of HH.


More details as time progresses.

1-email is ced53 at yahoo dot com
2- I will post info as suggested unless you say otherwise
3- All bottles are 16oz (500ml), slender, with a squirt top.
4- I have E-Caps. One or two added to your drink adds electrolytes. But only if you ask.
5- Pacing link http://www.box.net/public/75o3rqgty9[/URL" target="_blank">

Re: Boston Water Stop
Pro Hydration for non-professionals -- Loved it last year!!!

50/50 gatorade (red flavor preferred, but I am not picky).

THANK YOU!!!

BTW -- might want to include anticipated pace for the race. My plan is to run 7:20's until I crest Heartbreak. So, that gives you an estimate of when to look for me.

Re: Boston Water Stop
What about bananas?

Do Boston Boomers do bananas?

By 20 miles, my tummy is very, very picky.

This is a PROfessional crew! They picked me out of the crowd last year, called my name AND ran with me while I ate my banana. Gave me the gatorade and wished me a good finish!

I felt SO special!!!

If ya don't mind, I wouldn't complain about having a 1/2 banana with the gatorade again...

Re: Boston Water Stop
Thanks Pro, I was amazed that your crew picked me out of the crowd last year. I will try to make myself easier to spot this year. I will know better when we get closer, and numbers are assigned, at this point I anticipate passing your station at about 1:10.

Like last year, any flavor of gatorade that isn't lemon-lime would be good. if you have any orange, or red stuff left over it would be great.
Thanks.
Dave

Re: Boston Water Stop
I think I can...I think I can...I think I can...can I make it to the Boomer Elite Water stop this year?

If so, I'm seconding -junky's vote for Krug, please. And the vision of your bright, shiny faces. I can't wait! But here goes, playing by the rules...

20M eta: 1:15-1:30 PM (2:45-3:00 hours after the 10:30 AM start, I'm guessing prolly 10 min just to cross the starting line)
Number: tba
Name: Robin T.
What: Large bottle of cold Lemon Gatorade with 2 E-caps

THANKS!!! I can't wait to see you on that hill!

--Robin

Re: Boston Water Stop
Not running, but I'll certainly stop by to give some support. We were just before that point last year, the sun angle being best for Mr T's photos around Water Street just a little before Centre Street. So, we're planning to be at the same spot again this year. I

s your stop just after or before Centre Street?
