Interview Sponsor: UCAN
I'll be talking a little later about my BGL brick test in the news section later, but I did do the test using UCAN as my only fuel and hydration for the 2 hour brick and felt great throughout. I love that feeling of being 2 hours into an effort and feeling like you still have a kick, and you feel mentally sharp and positive.
