This time it's an Iron supplement tablet, a mini Clif Bar and a tube of peanut butter...awesome!
I'll stick with a huge bowl of raw garlic spinach with an orange for my iron (eaten with Vitamin C, so the body absorbs four times the iron) and of course, a nice piece of rare beef, far better sources of iron than a pill. Coconut oil in lieu of the peanut butter to use in my signature smoothie and yams to starch up rather than a grainy Clif Bar....I'm all set by myself, thank you very much!
Wouldn't it be cool if there were a race in which the title sponsors were a a fruit, vegetable, meat or fish distrubutor?
Think of something like...
"The first annual "X" marathon, sponsored by "X" Grass-fed beef farms and "X" raw kale"
Daydreaming? Maybe, but all great ideas start with a dream!
I like your use of Franglais, in lieu of the the peanut butter. All your posts are fascinating, love reading your stuff. Paleo is the way forward.

The last race I did actually had tons of apples and oranges at the finish line. Some bagels and cookies, too, but fruit was actually center stage. And you know what? I saw tons of people carting it off on their way home.

I agree with you. You have done a great job here. I am glad I have found iron supplement.
Iron is used to prevent and treat iron deficiency anemia. It comes in both form, tablets as well as liquid form. Liquid iron is the best absorbed form of iron supplements.
