foods/fluids at the exchanges

Generally speaking, we will be 100% self-sufficient. The following is what will be available, but certainly would not be enough to live on:

  • There will be Larabar samples in the Goody bag and Larabar will also be giving free samples at the start and finish.
  • In the morning in Gonzales, there will be breakfast tacos. Water will also be provided at the start (but only for that location... not for people to load up for their trip!).
  • The only leg that will definitely have water is leg 3 (the only leg longer than 8 miles).
  • Shiner will have a sausagewrap lunch that teams need to RSVP. The lunches are $6.
  • Flatonia will have a chili cookoff... more of a taste test, though.
  • Schulenburg will provide a little gift bag for the finisher of leg 11, and it may have treats (not sure).
  • Weimar will be providing a sausage-on-a-stick dinner (provided by Weimar's famous Kasper's Meat Market) - $7.50.
  • Borden will have 200 hamburger dinners (burger, chips, soft drink (or water or tea) - it won't be long until these are all reserved. $7.50
  • Columbus has many restaurants at I-10 & 71.
  • There are also plenty of gas stations / grocery stores along the route.
  • Starbucks is right by Luke's at exchange 28... we're worried about them.
  • Houston has some places to eat.
  • At the finish, every team will receive 4 large Papajohn's pizzas.
