Your nutrition strategy for long-distance efforts
It's not always your legs that give out first. On a Half (70.3) or during several hours of cycling and running, it's often your stomach that dictates the end of your race. What you manage to eat and drink along the way is as important as your training. In this module, you'll build your own nutrition strategy, adjust it for duration and heat, and train your stomach to handle what your body needs. Goal: reach the finish line with energy to spare, not on the verge of bonking.
