I've ran in Asics and Brooks before but none compare to the cushion of my HOKA's. I would still wear my Asics or Brooks for a shorter run, but the HOKA's are my new go-to shoes for anything 10K or above.Happyrunningsolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545206560406654274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7374068263881392946.post-37014039866697838822015-11-16T21:23:32.966-06:002015-11-16T21:23:32.966-06:00You can and will get through your long runs.

Although, I have had a chocolate Pop-tart in ages. I've actually never tried GU. Once I find what works I usually don't experiment with the unknown.Happyrunningsolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545206560406654274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7374068263881392946.post-69763289177893422015-11-16T21:21:30.167-06:002015-11-16T21:21:30.167-06:00I can't believe it's less than three weeks...I can't believe it's less than three weeks away! I'm so excited! I just read your recap on your 20 miler. Way to go! I look forward to cutting back on my mileage. I just gotta try to keep my mind off things beyond my control. Enjoy your taper!

I really want to try those Honey Stinger waffles when I'm recovered enough to do long runs again.

Chocolate is my favorite. I can do GU just not a bunch of them, but I could do a couple.

I am running St. Jude as well and we are getting so close!!

I tried Honey Stinger waffles while training for my first half and I've stuck with them and pretzels for salt intake. You're right though about choking, I break a piece off a little at a time. <br /><br />I first tried on the HOKA Stinson's and I felt like I would face plant if I tried to run in them. They were like moon shoes. I settled on the Asic's Gel Nimbus 17's and I was happy. Then, I went shoe shopping with mom and the clerk asked if I would like to try on the HOKA Clifton's that she was trying. I agreed, but I had no intention on changing shoes. As soon as I slipped on the Clifton's though I thought these are the ones. I didn't want to like them. I still can't get over how ugly they are, but after a few long runs I'm sold on their comfort factor. I just hope the ones I ordered feel the same way.Happyrunningsolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545206560406654274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7374068263881392946.post-5065306997406011382015-11-15T19:10:10.817-06:002015-11-15T19:10:10.817-06:00Bahaha - I LOVE this commentary!

And I love honey stingers although I tried a vanilla one (LOVE them) once during a race and nearly started choking cuz they're a bit dry. And I agree Hokas are ugly and I tried them once but they didn't feel good, kind of like walking on marshmallows - but maybe I could get used to it!<br />Thanks for sharing!Bradleyhttp://bradleyontherun.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7374068263881392946.post-22830893845600517022015-11-15T16:12:44.307-06:002015-11-15T16:12:44.307-06:00Thank you!
