Get ready to laugh out loud with this hilarious episode of Food Fight Friday on ‪@runtrimag‬! In this episode, Adam of ‪@Communitytrailrunning‬ faces a culinary conundrum that no ultra runner ever thought they’d encounter: choosing between eating, carrying, or tossing black licorice, Black Forest cake, and black coffee. Spoiler alert—black licorice didn’t stand a chance! 🎥 Food Choices (04:41 - 06:36): Adam hilariously debates which food to fuel up on, and it’s no surprise that his deep dislike for black licorice lands it in the "toss" pile. Black Forest cake, however, is his go-to pick for eating, especially when paired with his beloved black coffee. Because what’s a marathon without dessert and caffeine? ☕ Coffee Preferences (06:40 - 09:09): The laughter continues as Adam and Jason discuss their coffee loyalty—from Adam's love-hate relationship with Tim Hortons and Dunkin’ Donuts to Jason’s anecdote about sipping coffee in the heart of Manhattan. Who knew coffee could spark so much joy on the trail? 🎬 Next Episode Sneak Peek (11:26 - 11:52): Mark your calendars!
