The fuel guides

The following guidelines outline fueling strategies for common training sessions and race plans. A fuel guide is highly personal. Use this information as reference only to fuel your training and racing better.

Sports fuel is supported by science and works alongside real food — not as a replacement. Some Fuel Guides — longer or more intense — rely heavily on the specific composition of sports nutrition. Others less so.

Your race. Your physiology. Your fuel plan.
