What's the cheapest way to put energy in your vest when running long or in extreme heat?

Thanks! What are you doing for electrolytes?

I’ve done LMNT packs which just have stevia and flavoring. Or purchasing Potassium, Magnesium from a place like powder city or bulk supplements ADDING pink sally, and mixing a small dose together to do make my own diy style LMNT. I’ve tried maybe a dozen different gels that contain those with or without carbs and caffeine, but I can say those 3 are really all you need during a run if you’re eating well
