This year I am racing in the Hoodoo 300 Nomad (self-supported) division. My goal is to finish the race with a better time than I did in 2023.

Fueling & Hydration
This year, I will be fueling with a high carb mix of 120g per 750ml bottle, using 1 sachet of Maurten 320 and 1 sachet of Maurten 160 per bottle. I plan to consume 2 bottles approximately every 3 hours (more or less depending on effort/need). I have tested this extensively on several rides, including a several 200+ and 300+ mile rides during the past year, and it has worked exceptionally well for me.
For hydration, I will be carrying a 2L hydration bladder with LMNT electrolyte mix (2 packets). I plan to take sips every 5 minutes more or less depending on needs and conditions. Separating hydration and nutrition in this manner has been really helpful in allowing me to dial in my hydration independently of caloric intake.
