Ingredients

  • 1 Genesee bar of choice
  • ¼ cup salted roasted cashews
  • 6 dried Turkish apricots
  • 1 oz dark chocolate (70%+)
  • 1 small bag or container for packing

Method

  1. 1

    Break the bar into thirds — each third is one fuel segment for 45 minutes into a run or ride.

  2. 2

    Portion cashews and apricots into the same container alongside the bar segments.

  3. 3

    Tuck the chocolate in last so it stays cool against the other items.

  4. 4

    Pack in a jersey pocket or running vest.

  5. 5

    Consume the first bar-third at 40–45 minutes, paired with a few cashews and an apricot.

  6. 6

    Repeat at 85–90 minutes, finishing with the chocolate segment for the last push.
