RACE SUPPORT FROM LUCOZADE SPORT CARBO GELS AVAILABLE ON HASTINGS MARATHON COURSE Fuelling Your Run Taking on the challenge of a marathon is no easy task and the experts at Lucozade Sport want to make your race as enjoyable an experience as possible. The main source of fuel for your marathon run is muscle glycogen, rather than the body’s other main fuel source, fat. But with typical glycogen stores limited to between 1.5 and 2.5 hours of running, it is vital that you take steps to help your body sustain the demands of the full marathon distance. Avoid theWall Keeping properly hydrated and taking on carbohydrate during the race will help replenish the glycogen stores you are using up as you complete the course and ultimately help you avoid “hitting the wall” when your legs feel like they have just had enough and fatigue sets in. Lucozade Sport Carbo Gels Available on Course Knowing how important it is to boost your energy levels during the race, Lucozade Sport will be providing Carbo Gels on course as an excellent, easy to consume source of carbohydrate. Containing over 30g of carbohydrate each of the Carbo Gels should be taken with approximately 150ml of fluid. The Carbo Gels will belocated at miles 12 and 21 close to water stations, so pick up a bottle of water and sip the water when taking the gel. These extra gel stations will help to compliment the Lucozade Sport Body Fuel already strategically placed on the course at the 5, 10, 15, 19 and 23 mile intervals. Do Not Try Anything New on Race Day From your breakfast meal to eating jelly babies Lucozade Sport would recommend you do not try anything new on race day. If you plan to take advantage of the Carbo Gel stations on course then itis highly recommended that you have used them in your marathon training. Practise using Carbo Gels on your long runs in the next few weeks and see if you can improve your performance. Lucozade Sport is providing all Hasting Marathon runners with a special 30% discount on all our products to help you test run the gels and get the most out of your race. Simply visit www.lucozadeshop.com and enter discount code HM28 when placing an order. Remember – staying fuelled for the distance is essential, but so is practise. To take advantage of our Carbo Gels try them in training, then see the affect on race day! For more information please visit www.lucozade.com/running |
