    Love the positivity. You can tell she’s been at this a long time and has found fun ways to break the monotony of a diet built around professional training. I love seeing someone at such a competitive level really ENJOY food (I can relate to that 😉)

    What I'd be curious to know more about is in-race fueling for those of us non-elites that don't have a bottle at a table every 5k. Races will provide for water and electrolytes, but I've yet to see one that provides for fuel other than maybe a GU really late in the race. What are some strategies?

    • @bilonidas
      @bilonidas 5 лет назад +1

      No fuel or drinks until 10k races, is my humble opinion.

      I need in race fueling knowledge. Training for a full. I do UCan you start but start to run out of gas at about mile 17. Any suggestions?

    • @GenUCAN
      @GenUCAN 5 лет назад

      @@justlawrencel You can try a few things. (1) Try pre-loading with more UCAN at the start and it may last you linger than 17 miles (2) Carry a serving of UCAN with you in a small bottle or flask and take it down about 90 min into your run. This should cover you for the next 90ish minutes (3) Carry a gel or a more traditional, fast-acting fuel source with you. The UCAN will carry you up to mile 17 and then your other fuel source can take you to the end

    • @carrylroy6033
      @carrylroy6033 5 лет назад

      You can make a UCAN gel by adding less water...and then you can place that in a reusable soft flask or pouch. The benefits of UCAN without having to blend during a race!

      Maybe keep some low snacks on hand in your pockets for the long runs--pretzels and no-sugar added applesauce pouches come to my mind.

    I'm ketogenic, so what would I do on the day of a 10k or, say a half marathon, not eating more than 20g carbs per day? HOW can I "fuel up" without carbohydrates?

    • @diegocardona2364
      @diegocardona2364 5 лет назад +3

      You just don't worry about that, because of you are on ketosis you will start to burn fat, which is the best fuel source

    • @takatsu5
      @takatsu5 5 лет назад +4

      You'll have about 2000 calories of glycogen so you won't need any race day fuel until you race up to about 20+ miles. Being a fat burner you'll spare glycogen more so than a carb burner. I'm a low carb runner but I will use UCAN or gels strategically for training more than 18 miles or a marathon distance race. I take the UCAN an hour before the race. It keeps blood sugar high for a long time- that's its claim to fame. Gels cause an insulin crash but I'll take one or two and consume them possibly mile 16 through mile 22. Phinney and Volek have good research on this. I like Alexi's comment on how her legs like steak and sweet potato. As runners we always hear carbs, carbs, carbs but low carb athletes have been doing well in endurance events.

    • @GenUCAN
      @GenUCAN 5 лет назад +3

      The beauty of UCAN is that it's a slow-releasing energy source, so it causes a minimal rise in blood sugar and insulin, making it very compatible with people on a low carb diet. Even though a serving of UCAN has 20g or more of carbohydrate, because it breaks down slowly over time, you won't have the same metabolic response to it as more simple forms of carbs. Start with 1 serving of UCAN 30 minutes before your run and that should keep you sustained and feeling great for 2-3 hours.

      I'm currently at 3x13k runs a week in prep for my first half marathon and hopefully get up to about 18/19x3 a week just before the season i believe . I would think prep the day before would be more beneficial then race day it self. Consume a little more fat and protein then normal and make sure you're hydrated. Would love to see what others are doing that are also on keto

    • @IanLoughead
      @IanLoughead 5 лет назад

      2 options. You race with fat as a fuel which you have trained with. You won't be able to hit your top most speeds with fat, but you can certainly run fast if well trained. Or, you use carbs on race day and they burn super fast.
