i have a question regarding aid stations both bike and the run legs.
bike) where are they positioned, or how far apart? locations would be better to know, and where abouts is the special needs aid for the bike located?
run) what intervals are they apart? im probably assuming they're going to be a mile apart... and where abouts is the special needs located on the run leg?

Um I hope not. I remember getting a free case of the stuff for IMWI2010 and right off the bat my stomach did not agree with it. Sadly I am not sure if there would be a better choice, since most of those types of drinks I don't agree with.
