I recently took part in the 100-mile version of the Blackberry bRamble in Eugene, Oregon and was amazed at the range of proper food available at the rest stops. No gels or bar - why would you when you can grab a cup of M&Ms or fig rolls or a cheese sandwich, peanut butter in a fig, watermelon and so on. There were five kinds of cheese incidentally. real edible stuff. These five images show you about 80% of the food on offer. You had to remove your gloves and use an anti-bacterial gel before the volunteers would let you eat. Cost me $29 to take part.
But if you're that way and you have $80 to spend, you can do the Portland Century, which has such gourmet rest stops, you might not make it to the finish.
