Marathon & fuel
Marathon & fuel
In a marathon, proper fueling is vital for sustaining energy, preventing fatigue, and optimizing performance. Strategic nutrition and hydration help maintain a consistent pace, avoid hitting the "wall," and ensure a successful race experience. Adequate preparation and on-the-go nutrition are key for marathon resilience.
Lesson Notes
Practice in training before trialing in races. The body can absorb 80-100grams of carbs per hour. The body can absorb about 750ml of fluid per hour, and the rest can flush the body rather than aid which leads to dehydration.
