Nutrition on the run

During training for Clinton Lake 30M I had practically stopped taking calories during my runs with the goal of training my body to conserve glycogen and to get used to burning body fat.  Since the race I've been trying to find a meal-on-the-run for ultras of at least 50M.  In the past I've used Ensure shakes, but they always sit heavy in my gut for a while, which is pretty unpleasant.  So I hit the kitchen.

I came up with a bar that so far has tested well.  I ate a bar before each of my runs last weekend (Fri., Sat., and Sun.) and also during my run on Sat. and Sun.  I actually felt like I hadn't eaten anything, which means that they must digest pretty well.  Also, it means that there's no energy spike.  There's more testing to do -- particularly after several hours of running.  I need to see whether I can digest them when my system is really rejecting food, and to see whether they satisfy me when I'm very hungry.

I'm reluctant to post the recipe just yet because of the need for more testing.  I also don't know the nutritional profile.  So stay tuned...
