This is the drink I use for races and harder training runs. I drank 5.5 gallons of the original formula go juice at the [[2010 Keys 100]] as virtually my only fuel. The 5.5 gallons provided about 7,500 Calories and 500 grams of protein. Read more about how this drink helps improve your training at [[Nutrient Timing]].
=Original Updated Formula=For shorter training runs, I don't include ve updated the BCAA or Glutamine formula a little, partly to save reduce costs, and occasionally partly because I find they upset my digestion, so I sometimes leave them outlike the test better. I'll It also use my [[DIY Electrolyte Drink]] for conditions where hydration is provides a lot more important than fuelingcalories.
* 50g [[Protein]] Powder. I use [http://go.fellrnr.com?id=35454X937677&xs=1&xcust=ProteinONW&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB000QSNYGI Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard 100% Whey], Vanilla Flavor. It mixes easily and gives the drink a smooth 'creme soda' flavor and texture.
* 50g Table sugar. Normal table sugar works well, proving the sweetness needed as well as [[Fructose]]. The combination of [[Maltodextrin]], Glucose and [[Fructose]] optimizes absorption.
* 200g [[Maltodextrin]]
* Half Teaspoon Salt

I like the lighter fruit flavors like Lemon-lime, Orange, and lemonade. (The darker colors can stain some drink bottles.)
* Water to Two Quarts.
