Although I like the idea of jelly babies over gels, I can’t imagine regulating my breathing very well chewing on them, gels just slip down easy, but I for sure will give it a go 🎉
Just remember the longer the event the lower the intensity and triathlons are mostly aerobic so you CAN train fasted for longer events if you keep the intensity low, which should be most of the time anyway. Save the 60g+ of carbs for race day and possibly 2-3 days before, depending how depleted you are. Most people actually train OVER fueled!
Sooo... Where's the links for 'homemade energy'?

in most of my triathlon trainings i dont need to consume much or anything during training. its quite low intensity.
