Nutrition and hydration are often the missing links between runners and their peak performance, and this eBook focuses on the essential strategies needed to fuel your body for speed and endurance during race day. Whether you're striving for a personal best or trying to maintain a consistent pace throughout the entire 13.1 miles, this guide equips you with the knowledge to optimize your energy and performance.

Inside, you'll discover:

  • The Role of Nutrition in Performance: Fueling your body the right way is crucial for maintaining energy levels and preventing fatigue during your half marathon.

Learn what types of foods to focus on and when to incorporate them to optimize endurance and speed.
  • Race Day Nutrition: Knowing what to eat before and during the race can make or break your performance. The guide outlines specific meal and snack recommendations for the day of the race, ensuring that your body has the energy it needs without feeling sluggish. Discover how to choose easily digestible, energy-packed foods that provide sustained fuel for a strong finish.
  • Hydration Strategies for Peak Performance: Dehydration can seriously impact race performance, and understanding how to hydrate properly is essential for maintaining stamina. The eBook offers practical advice on how to hydrate effectively before, during, and after the race. Learn the best hydration techniques, including electrolyte balance and fluid intake, to avoid cramping and fatigue while staying fully hydrated.
  • Carbohydrate Loading Techniques: In the days leading up to your 1 30 half marathon, proper carbohydrate loading can increase your glycogen stores and improve endurance. This eBook explains how to effectively incorporate carb-loading into your pre-race nutrition strategy to ensure you have the energy reserves needed to sustain high intensity for the full 13.1 miles.
  • Post-Race Recovery Nutrition: Recovering properly after a half marathon is essential to prevent injury and ensure muscle repair. The guide includes post-race nutrition tips to speed up recovery and replenish lost nutrients, allowing you to bounce back faster and prepare for your next race.
