AVOID BONKING DURING THE BLACK FLY BY FOLLOWING THESE 5 TIPS.
Tip #1 Hydration: Replenish, don’t replace! Keep fluid intake below 25 oz./hr during exercise. Find out how much.
Tip #2 Caloric Intake: Stay fueled, but not overwhelmed, by consuming 120-180 calories/hr. Are carbs best?
Tip #3 Electrolytes: You need an array of vitamins and minerals, not just salt, to finish strong. What do you need?
Tip #4 Pre-Event Fueling: Don’t tax your system with a meal within 3 hours of start time. But what if you’re hungry?
Tip #5 Recovery: Refuel your tank with 60 minutes of finishing a workout. Are carbs or protein better?
