What’s In Your Cooler?
I would like to introduce you to my best buddy. The first one I run to, well, after a run. The one who freshens me up no matter how difficult the run was. The only one who can truly make me smile again when I feel like the road has beaten me up.
Introducing: My beloved cooler…
What does he have in store for me after each run?
- 1 to 3 bottles of Gatorade depending on the length of the run – I drink this during the run. Most of the Gatorade goes into my Nathan hydration belt or handheld bottle for refueling during breaks in the run.
- 1 bottle of water – I drink this to down my gel or, on hot days, for pouring on head and nape. I avoid downing my gel using a sports drink. Creates a lot of gas and we don’t want that!
- 1 bottle of Enervon HP – My recovery drink. I drink Enervon HP within the first 15 minutes after a workout just before we have breakfast. I need this to allow me to workout well the next day. If I skip this, I’m usually in trouble; I’ll wake up with sore or tight muscles. Bonus is that it’s really yummy, especially when chilled.
- Ice cold towel – Sometimes I’ll throw in an ice cold towel in there for putting over my head and nape after a run. Who cares how stupid I look?
- Loads and loads of ice – This is of course to ensure that all the other fluids stay cold. But, you can use chunks of ice to cool your body down during breaks in the run.
