During the marathon nutrition can be the difference between reaching your personal best and not even finishing the race!
Marathon nutrition requires proper planning.
It's important to study what's available along the way and create a strategy that takes into account water, supplements and foods provided at refreshment points (how, when and if to use them) as well as what you want to bring from home.
