   The “wall” comes from running out of carbohydrate-based glucose. Some endurance athletes are switching to high-fat, adequate-protein, very low carb diets to change their metabolism from primarily carb-fueled to primarily fat-fueled. Even a lean athlete can store 10 times as much energy in fat as they can in carbs, getting rid of the wall in marathons. I got this info from “The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Performance.”

   Virginia has had voter ID laws for a while. Have you noticed anyone complaining they did not get to vote because of that?

    “…the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” The opening phrase “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state…” describes the purpose, but the second phrase says who the right belongs to, “the people.”
