Ultra-running
Ultra-running is a sport that is growing rapidly. There are more events, and more athletes are participating in ultra-running. Ultra-running is also a sport that requires appropriate fuelling and hydration strategies for performance, but also for event completion without any detrimental effects. But what is the evidence for different sports nutrition strategies during ultra-running? Are there specific carbohydrate and hydration recommendations? And what about electrolytes? Watch this webinar for an evidence-based overview of nutrition strategies for ultra-running. Discussing the science, and outlining where more research is needed.
