Take Shilajit as an electrolyte/mineral boost and the Master Amino Acid Pattern 30 mins bevore your run. Magnesium Bicarbonate is also a recommended addition!
I generally go into an event having eaten lightly a few hours prior, as some people have mentioned here I like my stomach to be pretty close to empty as it seems to help with calming queasiness and G.I. issues fight or flight mechanism can be tough just prior to the race.
Some very high quality tips for sure! Keep up the great work guys!!
Click on this because I thought it was Brandi love in the thumbnail ��
“white rice”, if anyone ever reads this, make sure it’s Jasmin rice.
MILES! I EAT MILES!
And a protein bar about a 2 hours before my weekend morning runs.
I follow a ketogenic/low carb approach to endurance sports. So i do all my sessions in a fasted state without bonking.
Just stick to your normal routine and food/amounts you know, if you start changing things the day before it’s not going to help.
Breakfast: Oatmeal
20 minutes before hard run/race: 1 banana
During hard run/race: 1 gel every 30 to 45 minutes depending on intensity
After race: Treat yourself you deserve it!
I eat chico-sticks before my long run and sometimes oreo cookies.
I’m starting to run again. In 2007, I ran my 1st marathon. On the 12th mile my left thigh started cramping to the point that my leg would not move. I tried to to run after a couple of minutes but the cramp would come back. After going through that 3 times I decide to walk the rest of the way. There was no way I was quitting that race. I spent to much time training to end up quitting. I often wonder if coffee at breakfast was a bad idea. BTW not once through training did I cramped. It was some what disappointing. Any thoughts?
THANK YOU! This will be a focus for my next race. I noticed what messed my GI up a bit last time was the amount of stress/excitement/anxiety leading up to the race. Perhaps discussing tips on de-stressing or addressing anxiety before and during the race could also be an interesting video!
Awesome, exactly what I was looking for and very well put together.
No food for me less than 60min before a run. Possibly one cup of porridge with berries or nuts, bread, or an oat bar.
Thanks a Coach Elizabeth Doing a big run on Sunday so may have a bagel with peanut butter. Love the bloopers �� Have a great weekend are you running this weekend?
Doing my high run days, I started with no preparation for my 100k days and felt depressed afterwards, I now rest and plan the day before. I was living on protein bars but have found its better to carb load for high cardio output days. Thanks for the info
“don’t take anti inflamatory drugs”
I take them daily because of my chronic illness, does that mean that make me perform worse?
My doctors don’t tell me anything and I am just getting more and more discouraged with running.
Everything in my body is trying to make me worse.
“Hydration product”?!?!
By that I HOPE you mean water, right?
carb loading only works after severe glycogen depletion. this allows for storage of double the amount of glycogen for the event. what most people are doing is fat loading. piling in the carbs when the glycogen stores are full only allows you to store it as fat. not helpful if you are not fat adapted.
Your issue with salt pills ignores the fact salt pills are an alternative type of hydration product!
Why to go from fasting to the other extreme, protein and carbs.
Protein before running, really?
Only Sugar before, in form of fructose or any other kind of sugar, again, really??
For me, coffee and some fats work much better. Having of course my muscle loaded with glycogen the day before.
Love to video on Carb loading. How to properly? Does loading up the night before truly make sense? I usually load up 2 nights before and go easy the night before
I have been on a Kodiak Cakes pancake kick! I top it with fruit, peanut butter, and Greek yogurt!
WHat should I eat after a marathon? My body seems more hungry but I don’t want to overdo it.
I ran my first 8km race last weekend. I did heaps of spin bike training for cardio fitness, but it was all undone when I had the equivalent of 1 pieces of bread for breakfast. The last 3 kms was burning me bad, I was running on empty!
Definitely will learn from the experience. Nutrition was missing from my while paradigm!
on raceday; wake up and the first thing to do; drink a glass of water and do a little warming up… the body will release perfectly. My experience! no IG probs
Peanut butter and banana on toast 2 hours before and strictly no coffee within that time, I can’t even tolerate caffeine in gels so I know I’m more on the sensitive side. I’ve found banana really good for preventing any stitch too:)
I just completed my 1st marathon and it was difficult as I totally went out too fast and didn’t hydrate properly.. I completed the event, but with so much struggle after mile 19. Thank you for these great tidbits in your video.. ��
Outstanding. Heard the ibuprofen myth from other runners as well. Never thought it was a good idea. Props for you are my sunshine!
