Sir Cramps-a-lot

Yup that's me sir cramps a lot, 80 miles, I felt awesome, and was looking for the win as the group slowly got destroyed from about 20 down to 7 for the finish. I did a lot of work late in the race and felt like I could win until I stood up to sprint for the finish. My legs cramped again. So that is twice in my life and two in a row on a long hot road race in the last 2 weeks. I was so careful about drinking lots of fluids. Water, gatorade and EFS but still cramping at the finish. I was able to hang on to finish 4th but I know I could have been one or two which makes me want to kick somethin. I guess I need to eat 40 bananas before the race, at least that is what everyone tells me. I am looking for suggestion

So I guess the E100 is next so I will need to start riding long hours on the mountain bike, geez thats just too bad. I will really miss that road bike..... or not
