Today Ethan and I had two very important meetings. One was with a Gatorade rep and the other was with Adam from Covington Catholic where he integrated a refuel station. Chris from Gatorade was very kind and helpful we were using him as a test rep in order to get an idea of what Gatorade could offer and how they may be able to offer it. he shared with us three different packages that are up for purchase on Gatorade website

As we began this project our objective was to build a physical refuel station, but as we started our project it became clear that we would not have the time and materials to do so. So our focuses for the three weeks really went into learning about nutrition, interviewing hogs hills and universities, and laying out the logistics of the station so that someone can one day build it. Put mentors did a great job of making sure we know what we need to helped us get in contact with the right people, and made sure that we were asking the right questions. Ethan and I were very excited and enthusiastic to learn about this topic and begin the process of making a field station for Hawken. ...
