IM 70.3 World Championship (Marbella) nutrition tips




Cooler weather triathlon races bring unique challenges when it comes to clothing, pacing and mindset. But fueling mistakes are some of the most overlooked.

Key considerations for include:

▶Cool enough that thirst/appetite may be suppressed, increasing the risk for bonking and dehydration.
▶A demanding/hilly bike requires a somewhat elevated effort and increased energy cost - alongside more time out on the bike course.
▶A flat run course - with "perfect" weather may feel great in the early miles but falling short on bike nutrition can lead to early fatigue.
