    Thanks for the info on the GU, my daughter runs marathons, she qualified for Boston, I'll check with her if she has any.

    I had to redo my route as I am not sure of the open hours of the gas station at my Quebec turnaround. Here is how it is now:

    Start Saturday morning May 29th

    Start Brampton @ 9:00 am - 0km
    Gas stop Bowmanville @10:00 am (I know it is short) - 103km
    Gas stop Flying J south Montreal @1:45 pm - 532km
    Gas stop Ultramar St. Pacome @ 5:30 pm - 951km
    Gas stop Flying J south Montreal @ 9:15 pm - 1370km
    Gas stop Bowmanville @ 1:00 am - 1799km
    Gas stop Petro Canada Windsor @ 4:45 am 2219km
    Finish Petro Canada Trafalgar & Steels @ 7:30 am - 2535km

    Average speed for above is 118k/h. At 114k/h finish time is 8:12am

    Good luck man. I sincerely hope traffic is not an issue for you. Guh. I could hardly imagine hitting 1400 km and still having to do 1000 more. That is stamina.
