(in my mind I'm picturing an American athlete topping up on sports drinks, and then - BAM - the Ethiopian runner is discovered, as he overtakes on the steep, long incline!  Or better yet, the bushman as he runs 40km without water, never mind sports drink, to go tell another family of his discovery of a fallen elephant that needs their help in eating  )If you're asking about sports drinks, they are nothing but commercialization of sugary sodas in my opinion. |
