Carbo Loading Snacks and Drinks...

Hi,

I'm running the Stockholm Marathon on Saturday, and wondered if anyone could recommend some good carbo-loading snacks to eat whilst I'm travelling / away from home?

Dried fruit such as peaches, prunes, raisons, etc seem to have a very low glycemic index and therefore seem like they might possibly be a good choice. Also I was thinking of cooking up some tomatoey wholemeal pasta to take with me.

What do you reckon? Any advice would be most welcome...

Also, are there carbo-loading drinks available? Are these worth trying? I have SIS Go, but as this is an isotonic sports drink I imagine it would provide me with too much sodium and other minerals, vitamins, etc if I use it whilst not excercising. Any thoughts?
