  1. Who uses them? For what events? Brand?

    Thanks

  2. Thermotabs, and I use them for anything--training or racing--that is longer than 2 hours of running
    or 3 hours of biking.

    I believe that Mike is "Spot On" in his use of Thermo Tabs. Sometimes instead of salt tabs I add a
    tiny bit of salt to my drinks. Thermo tabs are a sure fire way to know exactly your intake.

  4. You can also purchase gel-caps at your local pharmacy (even PCC, a local healthfood store has them),
    and fill them up with salt directly. Its a bit cheaper than pre-packaged pills, and they don't turn
    into dust or absorb water as readily.

  5. Cheaper? Thermotabs cost about $6 per bottle of 100 and the tablets are much more than just table
    salt. There are other options with Hammer, Lava Salt, and Succeed.

    I use Endurolytes from Hammer. Since they're gel caps, they don't turn to dust. Also, they're not
    "ultra" concentrated so my stomache doesn't get so acidy. During really hot weather, I'll take abot
    2 per hour. I'm doing
    IMCDA. Since it probably won't be very hot, I'll probably only take 1 every hr to 1 1/2 hr.

  7. I use a tab called Succeed. It's a combo of different sodium compounds. (sorry I'm not reading the
    bottle here) One every hour at Ironman Hawaii last year worked wonders.
