    Kristen Schindler's review

    If the crew is under-fueled and dehydrated, decision-making starts getting sloppy fast...and the hanger is real. Eventually everyone reaches a point in ultras where gels stop sounding appealing. Having cold drinks, fruit, wraps, rice, potatoes, or recovery drinks available can completely change a runner’s ability to keep moving. Also: crew members need actual food too.
