The first thing I'm noticing is ... you don't seem to have consumed much in the way of electrolytes.
The second thing I'm noticing is ... you don't seem to have consumed much in the way of plain ordinary water.
Breakfast
Tea
Cappuccino
3 Eggs
English muffin with butter and honey
Did you salt the eggs well? With the temperature already 90F, why didn't you drink a glass of water?
That amount of food should have taken you 2 hours, however, eggs don't have a lot of calories, and honey tends to make me bonk, so I'd probably estimate about 1 hour of energy on that.
After that you consumed a bunch of stuff which I don't recognise.
- Skratch Labs?
- Blocks?
- Honey Stinger Waffle?
- CheerPak?
And 75 oz of stuff that isn't plain water.
Next time, eat your breakfast but replace the honey with a slice of reduced fat cheese.
Drink a glass of water with breakfast.
Fill the bottles with plain water.
Take an electrolyte tablet before you ride, and again at about the halfway point.
And if you feel you need to eat, go with salty food and foods high in the other electrolytes ... get a small bag of potato chips, put salted almonds in your bento bag and munch on them while you ride, have a banana, bring a granola bar with lots of nuts in it.
