Life is an ultramarathon

Today I was glad to find the excellent old fashion Clément Faugier's crème de marrons (chestnut spread) at Partridges. They don't have the new soft packaging version, only the tins and the tubes, but the latter are perfect for me. They're slightly sticky and rather sweet (although less than the PowerGels) but I feel like I'm going to take some with me at the UTMB, because I hope that pleasure will help to eat and digest properly :) .

Following last post, hereafter a short comparison table:

	Price (£)	Energy (KCal)	Weight (g)	Energy/Weight (KCal/g)
Crême de marrons	1	200	80	2.5
SiS Go gel	1	90	67	1.3
PowerGel	1.25	110	40	2.75

Edit (06/08/2008): updated weight and ratio for SiS GO gel: 25g was the weight of carbs, not the overall weight (67g).

Ultra yummy.
