Using a gel flask for marathon fueling
We try to get our athletes to be able to take in at least 60 grams of carbohydrate per hour for the marathon. Our faster runners, even more! When you start doing the math, that's anywhere from 6-10 gels! Where is that all going to fit? How are we going to carry that. Well, a few gel flasks and a good pair of shorts with 2-3 solid pockets, and you can do it pretty comfortably.
In today's video, I show you how I use one, how to know how much you are taking, and the advantages to using these in training and in racing.
