50 miles on cookie fuel?

I think I’ve died and gone to ultra heaven.  If this is recommended “fuel” for running ultra distance, I.AM.SO.IN.
I could get used to this.

    1. I love the fact that ginger is easy on the stomach (even in cookie form!)

    1. I've supported a few and have definitely taken notice of what is at the aid stations. Cookies seem to fit right in :)

    1. Experiment #1 (a couple pretzels washed down w/ a couple of those yummy ginger cookies) - SUCCESS! I only went 3 miles, but I figure it's better to experiment and possibly have it go very bad on a 3 mile run instead of a 10 mile run.
