We have mountains of accessories: drinks, packs, bottle belts, caps, hats, gloves, books, watches etc. etc. Each item carries a good description so it should be fairly easy to find what you’re looking for, but if you can’t figure out what gel / rucksack / bottle belt you need then please contact us at one of our branches and we’ll be happy to go through it with you. Alternatively refer to our Top Tips section.
ENERGY GELS Carbohydrate is what the body finds easiest to convert into energy. We can only store a certain amount of carbohydrate in the muscles in the form of glycogen. To make this fuel readily available we can store it up in the muscles prior to running as well as keeping it topped up during a run.
Gels come in small disposable packets and are therefore an easy way to carry carbohydrate when running. With most of them you need to drink water as they are concentrated. They all vary in terms of taste and consistency as well as vitamin and mineral content. It is best to try out a few different types in a training run to find out what suits you best.
How often to take the gels is very individual, varying from every 30-60 minutes and is something to experiment with in training.
RECOVERY To help recovery after a run we need to keep drinking! An electrolyte or high carbohydrate drink can help to replace everything lost during a run. After a long run or a particularly hard effort you might want to try a specific recovery drink or a protein bar. These contain a mix of carbohydrate and protein, as well as vitamins and minerals. Protein has been shown to be important for rebuilding muscles after exercise. |
