Look for easily digestible, rather carbohydrate-rich diet. Avoid greasy and high-fiber foods! The longer the load duration, the more crucial are full glycogen stores and a balanced fluid and electrolyte balance.
Have a regular intake of fluids and energy from carbohydrates without having a feeling of fullness. The last main meal is about 3-4 hours before a harder effort.
For long-lasting, optimal performance, it is important to ensure a regular supply of fluids, carbohydrates and electrolytes. Gels and sports drinks are ideal for runners. Depending on the training condition, the optimal intake of carbohydrates is usually between 50-80 g per hour. Drink regularly, but not excessively, and adjust to your thirst!

Pay attention to readily available, around 20 g of high-quality proteins and carbohydrates.
