DeeGee Mar 2016 2:08pm, 10 Mar 2016 17,054 posts	0 DeeGee Malt loaf isn't exactly portable, I suppose. However, if you run wearing a cycling jersey you'd be surprised what you can carry. I haven't run Paris for a few years, so I can't speak definitively as to what the feeding stations contain. Have you tried something like nakd bars? They're solid, but wrapped so should hold up better, and are basically mushed up fruit and nuts.
skookie Mar 2016 2:46pm, 10 Mar 2016 56 posts	0 skookie I cut and wrap up the malt loaf and I wear a belt that has a pouch Nakd bars are a good idea, may give them a go on my last long run ta
DeeGee Mar 2016 3:09pm, 10 Mar 2016 17,057 posts	0 DeeGee According to the FAQ, they're giving out dried and fresh fruit at every feeding station as well. Which is both nice (in that it's quite a good thing to eat) and nasty (in that it makes the road around the feeding station both slippery and sticky). No tea, though. I wish Paris would speak to the Germans and find out what they give out. I love drinking tea part way round...
