Thrilled to have completed my 32 K long run. Quebec City Marathon at the end of the month. Today, drank 3 bottles of 710 mL Gatorade (sale 2 for $3.50) as well as a 500 mL bottle of spring water. There was no water fountain in Tommy Thompson Park - so happy to enter the Shopper's Drug Mart on Lakeshore.
